Melasma and freckles both commonly exhibit pigmentation irregularities. Melasma typically manifests as brown or grayish patches on the face, often triggered by hormonal changes or sun exposure. Conversely, freckles appear as small, flat spots, usually tan, brown, or reddish in color, resulting from increased melanin production due to sun exposure. Treatment options for both conditions may include using topical creams, undergoing laser therapy, or receiving chemical peels to lighten pigmentation and restore an even skin tone.
