Hello and welcome to HC!

Bruno is a lovely looking hamster.
There seems to be a slight thinning of fur on the other side of the nose as well which would indicate a bar rub but it is hard to tell from the photo.

If you can't find an environmental cause, i'd get him checked out by a hamster knowledgeable or exotics vet.

I also have a brown Syrian hamster whose fur has become a lot lighter. I wonder if he's going to change back to dark brown again.
