How is Dyschromia defined?

Sensory changes in the skin
Discoloration of the skin
Loss of skin elasticity
Excess oil production

The correct answer is: Discoloration of the skin

Dyschromia is defined as a variation in skin color, encompassing any form of discoloration that can occur in patches, spots, or as a general change in skin tone. This can include hyperpigmentation (darkening of the skin), hypopigmentation (lightening of the skin), or other forms of abnormal pigmentation. The term is often used in dermatology to describe conditions where the normal coloration of the skin is altered due to various factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, or certain skin conditions. Understanding the correct definition of dyschromia is essential for identifying skin concerns and providing appropriate treatments in esthetic practice.
