Dark patches or spots on the skin, medically known as hyperpigmentation, can be a common concern for many individuals. These areas of skin become darker than the surrounding skin due to excess melanin production. Hyperpigmentation can occur for various reasons, including sun exposure, hormonal changes (such as pregnancy or hormonal therapies), skin injuries, inflammation, or certain medications.
