Hyperpigmentation is a common, usually harmless condition in which patches of skin become darker in color than the normal surrounding skin. This darkening occurs when an excess of melanin, the brown pigment that produces normal skin color, forms deposits in the skin.

The pigmentary disorders include those where there is lightening in skin colour, a darkening in skin colour, a mixed pattern of lightening and darkening in skin colour, or the development of unusual skin colour.
