Beneath the sun, where shadows play,
Hyperpigmentation marks its stay.
First and foremost, melasma appears,
Brown-gray patches, as sunlight sneers.
Meanwhile, PIH follows healing's course,
From acne's strike or trauma's force.
Moreover, sunspots claim their space,
On aging hands, a sunlit trace.
Because of melanin’s unchecked might,
Skin transforms in uneven light.
For instance, excess sun exposure calls,
Melanin rises, as sunlight falls.
Hormonal changes, in contrast, reign,
Through pregnancy or birth control’s chain.
Thus, inflammation leaves its mark,
In healed skin, shadows stark.
Yet there is hope, as treatments say,
Hydroquinone lights the way.
Retinoids join, and acids too,
To ease the dark and brighten hue.
Additionally, procedures shine,
Peels and lasers realign.
Furthermore, sunscreen holds the key,
To guard against sun’s tyranny.
Finally, lifestyle shifts begin,
Cover skin, let healing win.
Though pigments shift, the path is clear,
Through care and time, renewal's near.
