i have a dark armpit since i was 18 yrs oll. is it possible to have it lighter skintone?

Answer 1

for that particular problem i suggest lazer hair removal for that area. the reason that the area is darker is because the hair right underneath the skin. but other than that use can use a loofah sponge to lighten your skin tone and use sunblock and stay out of the sun.

Answer 2

We all have darker armpits than the rest of our bodies. It is perfectly normal. It appears to be more pronounced, the darker the skin to begin with. There are skin lighteners out there, but please use the guidance of a professional or you could end up with the opposite problem, especially if you use it where you shave. Even a "age spot" cream may work, but be aware of the shaving areas. I have heard that boric acid and lemon juice can lighten skin. Please be careful and unless it is unbelievably pronounced, don't worry so much. It is normal and natural.

Answer 3

Maybe the deodorant you are using is burning your skin under the arms. you should try changing to something gentler on your skin for a month see if it makes any difference. Also this may jjst be a natural thing

Answer 4

Yes, try a bleaching cream. The important thing is this is a sign of adrenal cortical insufficiency, so see a Dr.
