What Is Pigmentation & What Causes it?
Our skin’s colour, or pigmentation, is determined by melanin production. When there’s an excess of melanin, it results in skin darkening or hyperpigmentation. The reasons for the overproduction of melanin or hyperpigmentation can be both internal and external.
Internal factors include:
- Genetic elements.
- Issues with the endocrine system.
- Hormonal imbalances.
- Certain health conditions like Addison’s disease.
- The natural ageing process.
- Skin inflammation is caused by breakouts or protein accumulation.
External factors include:
- UV radiation,
- allergies,
- medication reactions,
- Few skin injuries
NOTE:
It’s crucial to note that individuals with darker skin tones are more prone to hyperpigmentation due to overactive melanocytes.
