Melasma is a benign pigmentation disorder that is common in women over the age of 30 – especially pregnant, postpartum and premenopausal women. This can be caused by hormonal disturbances, prolonged nervous stress, overuse of cosmetic peeling ingredients, or frequent exposure to sunlight.

Common causes of skin pigmentation

The direct mechanism that causes skin pigmentation is due to the overgrowth of melanin. Melanin is produced from melanocytes and regulates skin color. In fact, the process of pigment production requires the interaction between the enzyme tyrosinase and UVB rays from the sun. This is why the skin is often darker and darker when exposed to the sun for a long time.

However, in people with melasma, the amount of melanin is often concentrated in certain locations, causing spots and patches of light brown, dark brown with clear boundaries compared to the surrounding skin. Currently, the exact cause of skin pigmentation has not been determined. However, according to dermatologists, the risk of melasma can be increased when there are the following favorable factors:

1. Endogenous causes
   Melasma usually appears and develops strongly in women aged 30 years and older, during pregnancy and after birth due to many different reasons.

Endogenous factors that can cause melasma, include:

• Hormonal Disorders: Hormonal disorders are one of the most common causes of pigmentation. Experts have found that declining estrogen levels can cause the hormone MSH (melanocyte stimulating hormone) to go out of control. This condition is capable of stimulating melanin to overproduce and cause plaques and spots on the skin’s surface. Therefore, melasma usually occurs in pregnant, postpartum and premenopausal women.
• Effects of the aging process: In fact, melasma occurs only in women aged 30 and over and rarely occurs in young women. According to experts, aging facial skin can cause the production of melanin to be out of control and disturbance leading to the appearance of patches and brown spots on the cheeks, chin and nose.
  – Stress, prolonged stress: Prolonged stress not only affects brain activity but also indirectly causes skin pigmentation. When stressed, the adrenal glands tend to produce more of the hormone cortisone. When this hormone is elevated, pregnenolone is only able to control cortisol and lose its hormonal balance function. This leads to an excessive decrease / increase in estrogen and the formation of melasma.
  In addition, skin pigmentation can also occur due to a number of endogenous causes such as the site, the effects of ovarian and thyroid diseases or it can also be a side effect due to prolonged use of drugs.

2. Exogenous causes
   In addition to endogenous causes, melasma can also arise due to exogenous causes such as:

• Frequent sun exposure: UVB rays in the sun can stimulate melanocytes to increase melanin production and cause darkened skin, dark spots, and freckles.
• Abuse of peeling-in cosmetics: Long-term use of cosmetics that contain exfoliants can cause skin thinning and sensitivity to the sun. Furthermore, these products cause the lipid membrane to be broken down and cause the skin to lose its resistance function. These factors create favorable conditions for UVB rays to stimulate melanin production and cause darkening of the skin.
  In addition to the above reasons, the risk of skin pigmentation may also be increased if there are risk factors such as white, thin skin, living in a polluted environment, and the nature of the work having to be exposed to chemicals, Smog,…

Recognize skin pigmentation – Classification
Unlike freckles, melasma has a diverse and heterogeneous appearance. Based on clinical manifestations, melasma is divided into the following three categories:

1. Melasma
   Melasma usually occurs in the cheek area, characterized by large, small patches of light brown to dark brown color with inconsistent size and shape. Despite having a wide range of effects, this type of melasma has a deep vacuum, so it is often easier to treat than dermis and mixed melasma.

Melasma often occurs due to the harmful effects of environmental pollution, frequent exposure to sunlight, side effects of drugs and the consequences of overuse of peeling cosmetics.

2. Deep pigmentation
   Melasma deep (melasma / melasma) is a type of melasma whose legs are located in the dermis (the last layer of the skin). This type of melasma is characterized by round spots of varying sizes, from brown to dark brown, black, green or grayish green. Deep pigmentation usually grows on the chin, forehead and 2 sides of the cheeks.

3. Melasma mixture
   Melasma is a combination of melasma and deep pigmentation. Therefore, melasma can appear in both the dermis and epidermis. To treat this type of melasma, it is necessary to combine many methods and require persistence, absolute adherence to doctor’s indications.
