What are the common symptoms of melasma?

1. The course of this disease develops slowly and is difficult to determine. It usually lasts for months or years. Another point is that most patients have no conscious symptoms.

2. Skin lesions are usually light brown, gray, brown-gray, brown-black, or even dark blue-gray macules that merge to form flaky pigmented spots.

3. Chloasma lesions are limited to exposed areas of the skin, generally distributed on the face, mainly on the zygomatic arches, cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, and may occasionally be accompanied by pigmentation of the areola and external genitalia.

4. They vary in size and number, and eventually form arcuate or multi-ring lesions, which are distributed in linear or comet-like patterns, occur symmetrically and may appear like butterfly wings.

5. Most of the skin lesions have clear boundaries. When the pigmentation is less, the edges may not be clear, and the distribution will be diffuse. The surface of melasma has no scales or infiltration, and is generally not accompanied by other lesions such as erythema and papules.
