The reasons for pigmentation

Our research suggests that hypertension depends on the type. Some of the possible causes of pigmentation are

Sun exposure

Our body produces melanin in large quantities to prevent prolonged exposure to sun rays. This could lead to the formation of age spots or sun spots on your skin.

Skin inflammation

Certain areas of your skin could darken if you are suffering from inflammation of your skin.  This includes injury or lupus to the skin. People who have darker skin are more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation.

Melasma

Dark prolonged patches of skin can emerge due to hormonal changes. This is a type of pigmentation common during the period of pregnancy.

Diagnosis of pigmentation

People suffering from pigmentation could get in touch with a doctor as they need to figure out the cause and type. Mostly the doctor is going to undertake a biopsy a small portion of skin sample to figure out the cause of pigmentation. Usually, doctors can diagnose pigmentation by looking at the skin itself. A special light known as woods light is necessary for a skin examination.
