Skin pigment comes from melanin. One of its purposes is to give your skin colour resulting in your Fitzpatrick skin type. In some people melanin can be over produced in some areas causing increased pigmentation or ‘hyperpigmentation’.
Some causes of hyperpigmentation:
Sun exposure
Ageing
Hormonal changes e.g. Melasma in pregnancy
Skin inflammation
Skin injuries
