Understanding your symptoms
The key symptoms of melasma include flat, darkened patches that appear symmetrically on the skin, most commonly on the face. These patches can be light to dark brown or grayish and tend to develop gradually. Melasma doesn’t cause pain or itching, but its visibility makes it noticeable. Often triggered by sunlight, hormonal changes, or pregnancy, it may worsen during summer. If you notice persistent or spreading pigmentation, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and management to avoid complications.
