    Glossary Hyperpigmentation

    condition where skin patches darken due to excess melanin

    Hyperpigmentation is a condition where patches of skin become darker than the surrounding areas due to an excess production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. This can be caused by factors such as sun exposure, inflammation, hormonal changes, or certain medications, and is commonly seen in conditions like melasma, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
