The natural coloration of the skin is determined by melanin distribution.
What is it?
Skin coloration signifies the hue of an individual's skin, which is influenced by melanin, a pigment synthesized by specialized skin cells called melanocytes. Melanin accounts for the color of your eyes, hair and skin. Uncommon or irregular skin coloration can arise from numerous factors, such as excessive sunlight exposure, hormonal fluctuations, specific medications and skin injuries. Some individuals might suffer from pigmentation disorders like hyperpigmentation (dark skin patches) or hypopigmentation (light skin patches). Genetic factors also contribute to an individual's skin coloration.
