Melasma is caused by melanocyte cells in the epidermis, the lowest layer of the skin, producing more melanin or pigment than necessary on the epidermis, causing brown patches that are clearly visible, spreading widely and with unclear boundaries. Melasma can be divided into 3 types : shallow melasma, deep melasma, mixed melasma.

• Superficial melasma occurs easily, is at the epidermis (outer layerof the skin), has a brown color with clear edges, and can be treated and faded by applying sunscreen or mild melasma cream.
• Deep melasma occurs at the dermis, deeper than the epidermis, has a purple-blue color, has unclear boundaries, and is more difficult to treat than shallow melasma and is rarely completely cured.
• Mixed melasma occurs at both the epidermis and dermis. The center is usually dark, indicating melasma in the dermis, while the edges are usually lighter, indicating melasma in the epidermis. This type of melasma is also the most common type.

Freckles are similar to melasma, which is the melanin pigment malfunctioning, causing the skin color in that area to be brown or black in small spots. They can be found in both children and adults, especially in people with fair skin. They appear on the face, neck, or parts of the body that are frequently exposed to sunlight. They may darken and spread over a larger area when stimulated. Freckles can be divided into 3 types: shallow, deep, and fleshy.

• Freckles are common in Europeans. They appear as small brown spots. They are often found in areas exposed to a lot of sunlight, such as the cheekbones or nose. In some cases, they may spread all over the face, neck, arms, and chest. Freckles are caused by abnormal pigment cells under the skin. The cause of abnormal pigment cells is mostly genetics, which makes pigment cells more sensitive to sunlight than normal. Freckles appear since childhood. People who have this type of freckles, if exposed to sunlight regularly without proper protection, have a chance of making the freckles darker, more numerous, and expanding.

• Deep Freckles Deep Freckles are common in Asians. Especially Japanese, Chinese and Thai people, the characteristics of freckles are small spots or brown, gray, black patches with unclear edges. At first glance, they look like melasma. They are often found on the cheekbones, bridge of the nose or both temples. Freckles are caused by abnormalities of pigment cells in the dermis layer. They are found since birth and are stimulated by UV rays from sunlight along with increased hormones during adolescence or pregnancy. This makes freckles more visible with age.

• Skin freckles Skin freckles are small, light brown or dark brown bumps. They are often found on the face, neck, chest and back. They may appear as small bumps and then gradually enlarge, become raised or darker in color. However, they grow quite slowly. Skin freckles are caused by the abnormal growth of the epidermis. The triggers are sunlight and aging. As we age, the size of the freckles increases and the number of them increases.

• Sun freckles Sun freckles are small, flat spots or patches of brown or black color with clear edges. They are often found in areas that are frequently exposed to sunlight, such as the face, arms or legs. They mostly occur in people with fair skin and are quite old. The cause is from exposure to strong sunlight from playing sports or doing outdoor activities. Sometimes it can be a side effect of other treatments, such as UVA light therapy for psoriasis, which can also cause freckles.
