What would be the cause of depigmentation on one's back? (as in my profile picture)

Well I can't seem: to enlarge your photo, but hyperpigmentation can be caused by many things, I suggest a visit to the dermatologist for correct diagnosis and treatment. (as fungus, postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, and many other possibilities)
