What is pigmentation Treatment?
Skin pigmentation (dark spots) can be caused by sun damage, hormones (melasma), acne and inflammation. Treatment starts with an accurate diagnosis because each type responds differently. Daily sunscreen, creams prescribed by a dermatologist, chemical peels and laser or light treatments are used; melasma needs especially careful, long-term management.
