A common cause of pigmentation is an excess production of melanin. Melanin is a pigment that gives skin its color. It?s produced by skin cells called melanocytes. Several different conditions or factors can alter the production of melanin in your body. Certain medications can cause hyperpigmentation. Also, some chemotherapy drugs can cause hyperpigmentation as a side effect. Pregnancy changes hormone levels and can affect melanin production in some women. Let?s discuss your concern in detail so that we can provide you with the best medical plan.
