What is Melasma?

Melasma is a skin ailment that appears as a brown or blue-gray patches or freckle-like spots on the skin. It's often referred to as the "pregnancy mask." Melasma is caused by an overproduction of the cells that give your skin its color. It is common and innocuous, and some treatments may be helpful. Melasma often dissipates within a few months.
