Abstract

Tae-Ryong Lee*

Our skin is not just an outer covering; it's a canvas that reflects our health, beauty and identity. Skin pigmentation plays a significant role in determining our complexion and the uniqueness of our appearance. However, for many individuals, skin pigment disorders such as melasma and hyperpigmentation can be a source of concern. In this exploration, we delve into the intricacies of melasma and hyperpigmentation, shedding light on these skin conditions, their causes, impact and potential solutions. The skin, our body's protective outer layer, is a remarkable canvas that reflects our identity and experiences. It is the stage upon which our diverse hues and tones are showcased, a testament to the intricate interplay of genetics, environment and the fascinating pigment known as melanin. However, this canvas is not always uniform. For many individuals, it bears the marks of hyperpigmentation, a skin condition that can cast shadows on both appearance and self-esteem.
