All you need to know
What is Melasma?
Melasma is a common skin condition caused by an overproduction of pigment, leading to light-to-dark brown or grey patches on the face. It affects all genders and skin types but is more common in women and those with darker skin tones.
While melasma can impact skin appearance, it is completely harmless, non-infectious, and not contagious.
The exact cause is unknown, but it has been linked to pregnancy, hormonal medications (including the contraceptive pill), UV exposure, stress, and certain cosmetics. Fortunately, there are effective treatments to reduce flare-ups and improve skin tone.
Symptoms of Melasma
Melasma appears as dark brown or grey pigmentation on the face, often forming symmetrical patches on both sides. Unlike other skin conditions, melasma is painless and does not cause discomfort.
