Typically benign (non-cancerous) areas of lighter or darker skin contrasting with your overall skin tone. Some people elect to treat these areas for cosmetic reasons.
What is it?
Your unique skin coloration is determined primarily by melanin, a pigment made by specific skin cells called melanocytes. This pigment determines the color of your eyes, hair and your skin. Uncommon or inconsistent skin coloration can arise due to several factors including intense sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations, particular medications and skin injury. Some individuals may deal with pigmentation disorders like hyperpigmentation (dark skin patches) or hypopigmentation (light skin patches). Genetics also influence the skin coloration of a person.
