Laser Treatment for Underarm Whitening: Say Goodbye to Dark Pits

What is underarm darkness?

Your underarms should naturally match the shade of the rest of your skin, but sometimes, the skin in this area can develop a darker hue. While dark underarms are usually not a serious concern, they can lead to feelings of embarrassment and discomfort, especially when wearing sleeveless clothing. In some cases, the darkening may be accompanied by itching or an unpleasant odor, further impacting your confidence.

The color of your skin is determined by pigment cells known as melanocytes. When these cells multiply excessively, they can cause the skin to darken. Although this is a common issue, with the right care and advanced treatments like laser treatment for underarm whitening, you can achieve smoother, lighter underarms.

Understanding the causes and taking preventive measures will help you maintain the health and appearance of your skin.

If you’re considering aesthetic solutions, it’s essential to know that the underarm whitening treatment cost may vary depending on the severity of pigmentation and the number of sessions required. Let Evenly guide you to healthier, more even-toned underarms with cutting-edge solutions like laser treatment for underarm whitening, restoring your confidence and comfort.

Topical and Oral Medications

Our dermatologists offer a comprehensive approach to dark underarm treatment, providing a range of topical and oral medications tailored to your needs. These may include hydroquinone, retinoids, azelaic acid, kojic acid, glycolic acid, arbutin, and vitamin C. These treatments are often used as supportive therapy alongside laser treatment for underarm whitening to accelerate results and enhance skin brightness.

Note: It’s important to consult a dermatologist before using any skin-lightening products, especially hydroquinone, as some can have side effects or require specific usage instructions.

Chemical Peel

A chemical peel is a controlled skin-resurfacing procedure that involves the application of a plant-based chemical solution to the affected area. This process removes dead skin cells, improves skin tone, and reveals smoother, healthier skin while promoting collagen and elastin production. Chemical peels help eliminate melanin buildup, reduce pigment formation, and reveal visibly brighter skin.

At Evenly Skin and Hair Clinic, our approach to treating pigmentation with chemical peels is grounded in delivering comprehensive solutions tailored to each individual’s unique skin type and pigmentation severity. Whether you have sensitive skin or severe pigmentation concerns, our experienced dermatologists will customize the peel to deliver optimal results while ensuring safety and comfort.

laser treatment for underarm whitening

Laser treatment involves the use of an advanced USFDA-approved Q-switched ND:YAG laser device that emits gentle pulses of light energy onto the targeted underarm area. This process helps eliminate excess melanin, gradually whitening and evening out the skin tone. It is a safe and effective procedure with minimal downtime.
