Dark pigmentation can be caused by three different factors: 1. Sun Exposure It usually takes up to a few years for dark spots to appear on the sun-exposed areas of the skin. After their appearance, the probability of them fading away without a proper treatment is small; however, considering the fact that a changed pigment stays just beneath the surface of your skin, the condition can be treated with the aid of various scrubs and creams. It is highly recommended you use a sunscreen as a prophylactic method, and as a way to keep your hyperpigmentation from darkening any further. 2. Melasma (Chloasma) These murky spots start appearing on the upper lip as a product of hormone changes that occur during pregnancy (or consumption of birth-control pills). Even though they are highly treatable, they may reappear. 3. Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Dark skinned people could develop some dark spots that might stay there for a while after a pimple or a burn has healed. But there is no need to worry! The skin will regain its normal color within three to six months. Berberis Aquifolium ? Excellent Homeopathic medicine for treating facial pigmentation from eruptions
