Many women struggle with discoloration in the armpits. Conventional shaving or creams usually do not offer a satisfactory solution. At BellaDerma, we use laser hair removal to lighten dark underarms.
The answer is hyperpigmentation. This term describes persistent dark spots on the skin caused by overproduction of melanin, the pigment that determines our skin color. In the armpit region, this hyperpigmentation tends to be more extensive and differs from typical pigmentation spots.
The most effective method to lighten the armpits is laser hair removal. This method not only removes hair permanently, but also helps to reduce hyperpigmentation. There are different types of lasers such as alexandrite, diode and Nd:YAG lasers. At the BellaDerma specialist center, we use all three technologies to treat all skin & hair types. Our diode laser, for example, sends high-energy light waves to the hair roots, reducing both hair growth and excess melanin. The end result? After several treatments, the skin in the armpit becomes lighter and the hair less visible.
Discoloration in the armpits, which is an aesthetic concern for many people, can be effectively treated with modern laser technology. Various factors, such as hormonal fluctuations, waxing, excessive sweating, excessive use of deodorants, wearing synthetic clothing, pregnancy, contraceptives and natural skin ageing, can promote such discoloration.
A tip: Before laser treatment, you should avoid skin irritation, such as peeling or sun exposure, as well as other hair removal methods.
Our advanced laser devices have special programs for underarm lightening. This is an effective way to reduce discoloration and darkening in this region. The treatment is virtually painless and patients can go about their daily activities immediately afterwards.
While one laser session is usually sufficient, some people may need further treatments to achieve the desired result.
After underarm whitening treatment, we recommend using Bepanthen in the area to support the healing process. Possible mild side effects, such as swelling, minimal blistering, redness or darkening, may appear immediately after the treatment or in the following days. However, these symptoms usually subside quickly. After about two days, a slight scab may form, which will peel off within a week. Within a month, a renewed, even and fresh skin is revealed in the treated area.
