Disease Overview
Hyperpigmentation occurs when the skin produces excess melanin (a pigment that gives skin its colour) which makes spots or patches of skin appear darker than surrounding areas. It can occur due to unprotected sun exposure. Too much exposure to harmful UV rays can also lead to sunburns or sun allergies on the skin.
Directions of use
Sunscreen should be applied 15-30 minutes before going outdoors.
Before you apply sunscreen on the body, apply a patch in a small area to ensure it does not cause any reaction on the child’s skin.
Apply evenly a thin film on the exposed areas. Pay particular attention to the face, ears, hands and arms and coat the skin liberally. The lotion will become invisible after application.
Be careful while applying sunscreen around your child’s eyes.
For better results, reapply sunscreen every 3 hours.
Reapply after swimming or heavy sweating or as advised by the physician.

Trivia & myth busters
Myth
Sunscreen has to be applied only in summer.
Fact
The truth is anytime the body is exposed to the light from the sun, it is exposed to UV rays. UV rays are harmful to the skin and sunscreen is a must to protect the skin from UV rays
Myth
People with dark skin do not need a sunscreen.
Fact
People believe that the presence of melanin protects the skin from damage due to the sun’s rays. While people with darker skin are more protected from the sun, they should still use a broad-spectrum sunscreen as melanin will not be able to protect the skin from the effect of UVA rays and prolonged extreme sun exposure.
Myth
Sunscreen will prevent the absorption of Vitamin D.
Fact
According to recent studies, in a tropical country like India, sun exposure for just 45 minutes is enough to generate the amount of Vitamin D needed for a week. Moreover, UV rays can penetrate your clothes and windows, so your body is never completely devoid of sunlight at a given point of time.
But the intensity of sunlight from 10 am to 4 pm is very high and has harmful effects on the skin, therefore, it is important to use a sunscreen when you go out at this time of the day.
Myth
One application of sunscreen lasts all day.
Fact
Physical sunscreens can wear off the body at some time due to sweat & water. And chemical sunscreens are subject to degradation in light. Hence, sunscreen may lose its efficacy over time. Therefore, sunscreen has to be reapplied after every 3 hours for regular sun protection.
