Postpartum Pigmentation

Description

Postpartum pigmentation, often called "hormonal discoloration," is a common skin concern among new mothers, characterized by darkened patches or spots that develop during or after pregnancy. Known medically as melasma or chloasma—and sometimes referred to as the "pregnancy mask"—this condition typically causes brown or gray areas to form on the face, such as the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. Other signs of hormonal hyperpigmentation include darkened areolas and the appearance of a linea nigra, a dark vertical line on the abdomen. These changes occur due to major hormonal shifts, particularly increased estrogen and progesterone, which stimulate excess melanin production in the skin. Although often distressing, postpartum pigmentation is usually harmless and tends to fade over time, especially with proper sun protection and gentle skincare. For lasting or severe cases, advanced treatments such as laser therapy, topical solutions, or chemical peels are available—making South Korea a leading destination for safe and effective solutions to achieve brighter, more even-toned skin.
