Скачать или смотреть Skin Pigmentation: Common Causes & Treatments | Dark Patches on Face? | Dr. Smriti Naswa Singh

Skin pigmentation is one of the most common concerns people face today. In this video, Dr. Smriti Naswa Singh, Consultant Dermatologist at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, Mumbai, explains the real causes of pigmentation and how it can be treated.

Pigmentation is not always just about sun exposure. It can happen due to hormonal changes such as pregnancy or menopause, leading to melasma or “chhaiyan.” Sometimes, it is caused by hair oils, cosmetics, or chemicals that irritate the skin. In other cases, autoimmune conditions like lichen planus pigmentosus may be responsible.

Another overlooked cause is friction or scrubbing the skin harshly with loofahs, stones, or towels, which can result in long-term pigmentation. Dr. Smriti also highlights acanthosis nigricans, a type of pigmentation linked to insulin resistance and lifestyle issues such as obesity and poor diet.

She emphasises that skin is the mirror of your internal health. Instead of experimenting with random creams and home remedies, it is important to consult a qualified dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

✨ Take care of your skin gently, just as you would care for a child’s skin.
