Pigmentation happens when skin makes extra melanin in certain areas. Sun exposure is the main trigger, but hormones, heat and inflammation from breakouts or irritation can all leave darker patches behind. Deeper skin tones are often more prone to marks after spots or irritation.
A simple routine: antioxidant serum and SPF in the morning, a brightening or vitamin A product at night. Be patient, as changes take weeks. Environ's Radiance+ Intense C-Boost Mela-Even Cream, Dermaceutic Mela Cream and NeoStrata Enlighten are popular choices.
See your GP or a dermatologist about patches that are spreading or very persistent, and have any mole or spot that changes in size, shape or colour checked promptly.
