Overview
Skin-related tinea versicolor is a common fungal infection. Due to the fungus, the skin develops tiny, discolored areas where the pigmentation has been disrupted. On the skin’s surface, there is a yeast-like organism known as Malassezia. Malassezia aids in defending your skin from hazardous illnesses and infections.
They support the skin cells and have a symbiotic relationship with them. Sometimes the yeast growth might get out of hand and harm the pigmentation and color of your skin. Patches that are either lighter or darker than your natural skin tone may form as a result of this.
