Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Brief answer - Hyper pigmentation

Detailed answer - As per your query your skin has increased sensitivity of getting pigmented in spite of no exposure of sunlight. Need not tworry. I would suggest you to apply cream rich in Azelaic acid or Kojic acid. Apply on face twice daily. It will lighten pigmentation on skin. use medicated sunscreen such as Tancare rich in SPF 30.

You can go for home remedy as well. apply mashed potatoes on these pigments. It wiill resolve. apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil to lighten the pigments.

You can visit dermatologist once and can go for chemical peeling or micro abrasion if your symptoms not resolving. Take supplements rich in vitamin C.

Hope your concern has been resolved.
