WHAT IS HYPERPIGMENTATION?

Hyperpigmentation is the infamous spots that affect skin when melanin – the lovely thing that gives you tan skin, as well as our hair and skin color- overproduces in certain spots on the skin cause an uneven skin tone and dark spots. Hyperpigmentation can be at times cause by various aspects ranging from age spots, hormonal inflammation, pregnancy and of course the thing I tend to do often- PICKING! I know, I know its such a bad and dirty habit- but I am kind of addicted; BUT working on it. Anyhow any sort of trauma to the skin can cause upon healing a dark spot in its spot- this my friends is hyperpigmentation.
