What Is Melasma?
Melasma, also known as ‘chloasma’ or the ‘mask of pregnancy’, is a skin condition characterised by dark and discoloured patches on the skin. It occurs when melanocytes are impacted by fluctuating estrogen and progesterone, increasing melanin production. This worsens with continual sun exposure. Though the condition predominantly affects women (in their reproductive years – 20-40 years – mainly those using medications that affect hormones), men are also at risk. It is also often mistaken for freckles.
It appears on body parts most exposed to sunlight, including:
• Upper arms
• Shoulders
• Nose
• Upper lip
• Forehead
• Cheeks
• Jawline
• Neck (among older women)
