Pigmentation Disorders

Pigmentary disorders or skin discoloration can present in a wide variety of ways but is usually characterized by light or dark spots on the skin. Skin discoloration can be caused by the immune system attacking the cells in the skin that make pigment (melanocytes) or can be secondary to another process which leads to dark or light spots that are left behind after a primary process has occurred. Common causes for skin discoloration include vitiligo, melasma or post inflammatory discoloration.
