What is hyperpigmentation?
Hyperpigmentation is a common and usually non-threatening condition, in which patches of skin on parts of the body, such as the face and hands, look darker than your natural skin tone. This is caused by an overproduction of melanin, which is a brown pigment that gives the skin its natural colour.
Hyperpigmentation affects both men and woman from all ethnic backgrounds and is most prevalent in middle age individuals and beyond.
