Typically benign (non-cancerous) areas of lighter or darker skin contrasting with your overall skin tone. Some people elect to treat these areas for cosmetic reasons.
What is it?
Your skin’s color is primarily determined by melanin, a pigment produced by specialized cells called melanocytes. This pigment not only defines your skin tone but also contributes to the color of your hair and eyes. Inconsistent or unusual skin pigmentation can result from factors like excessive sun exposure, hormonal changes, certain medications or skin injuries. Conditions such as hyperpigmentation (dark spots) and hypopigmentation (lighter areas) can occur, and genetics also play a significant role in determining your skin's pigmentation.
