Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern that causes certain areas of the skin to appear darker than the surrounding skin. It can develop for many reasons, including sun exposure, acne, hormonal changes, inflammation, aging, and past skin irritation. Some patients notice scattered dark marks after breakouts, while others are more concerned about larger, uneven patches or visible spots on the skin that affect their overall complexion. In many cases, multiple causes are involved at once, which is why treatment should always be tailored to the skin’s condition and the source of the discoloration.

It’s a broad term used to describe areas of the skin that become darker due to increased melanin production. It may appear as small spots, larger patches, or uneven tone across the face and body.

These concerns may be caused by a combination of factors, such as:
