 It's a tan or dark skin discoloration. Although it can affect anyone, it's particularly common in women, especially pregnant women and those who are taking oral or patchcontraceptives or hormone replacement therapy (HRT) medications. The symptoms of this sign are dark, irregular well demarcated hyperpigmented macules to patches commonly found on the upper cheek, nose, lips, upper lip, and forehead. These patches often develop gradually over time.
