Hyperpigmentation: Increased pigmentation of skin may be inherited. This just may be your skin color. Continued trauma to the skin may darken the color even more. I would seek out consultation from a dermatologist to see if the skin can be lightened . There also are very good foundation makeups that can cover up darker skin.
