Melasma
Condition: Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by the development of brown or gray-brown patches on the face, particularly on areas exposed to the sun. It often occurs in women and is associated with hormonal changes, such as pregnancy or oral contraceptive use. The pigmentation arises from an overproduction of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. While melasma does not pose any health risks, it can be a cosmetic concern. Sun protection, topical lightening agents, and other dermatological treatments are commonly employed to manage and lighten the pigmented areas.
