Excessive sun exposure, aging, genetics, body hormone changes, medications, acne vulgaris or pregnancy can cause pigmentation and darkening of the skin. Pigmentation occurs when skin produces an excess amount of melanin. Melanin is a pigment that gives skin its color and is produced by the skin cells called melanocytes.

When melanocyte activity is stimulated by UV rays or other factors, pigment lesion occurs on the area where there is a large concentration of the cells. Some of the most common pigmentations are freckles, melasma and age spots.
