A member asked:
Do i have mask of pregnancy (melasma/chloasma) or rash?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brown or red?: Usually mask of pregnancy will be brownish, worsened by sun exposure, and often on upper lip, cheeks, mid forehead. Rashes are more commonly reddish and could be anywhere on the face. Itching would be more common with a rash than with mask of pregnancy.
