Nevus of Ota

Seeking safe and effective Nevus of Ota treatment in Jamshedpur? Dr. Kumar Skin and Laser Clinic offers advanced laser solutions to reduce this rare pigmentation disorder with precision and care.

What Is Nevus of Ota?

Nevus of Ota is a rare, blue-gray or brown discoloration of the skin caused by excess melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) deep within the dermis. It typically appears on one side of the face, often affecting the cheeks, forehead, nose, temples, and the whites of the eyes (sclera). The condition is present from birth or early adolescence and tends to become more visible over time.

Though harmless, Nevus of Ota can lead to cosmetic concerns and emotional distress due to its visibility.

Causes of Nevus of Ota

The exact cause is unknown, but several factors are associated with this pigmentation:
  • Congenital pigmentation disorder: Present from birth or appears during adolescence.
  • Excess dermal melanocytes: Pigment cells trapped in deeper skin layers.
  • Ethnic predisposition: More common in individuals of Asian and African descent.
  • Hormonal changes: Can become more noticeable during puberty or pregnancy.
  • Genetics: May have a hereditary link in some cases.

How Nevus of Ota Appears

  • Color: Bluish, grayish, or brown patches. 
  • Location: Usually on one side of the face, especially the eye area. 
  • Associated Involvement: May involve the sclera (eye white) and mucous membranes. 
  • No physical symptoms: The patch is usually painless but cosmetically distressing.
