What Causes Dark Underarms?

 

Everybody wants to have flawless skin like Anne Hathaway. A typical skin problem we encounter is underarms discoloration. Those who can afford it will spend money just to get smooth, silky, and even-toned underarm skin. But sometimes, all the creams and ointments we use seem to be insufficient, especially when we want to achieve lighter underarms. Don’t give up hope just yet. I listed three major causes of dark underarms and how to solve these problems.

Underarm Hair

This could be the culprit why you have dark armpits. The thicker and more hair armpits you have, the darker your underarm will look. Shaving will not solve the problem since the roots of the hairs will still remain under your skin. This could still cause dark underarms. You can solve this by eliminating the hair follicles from the roots. Consider IPL-underarm laser hair removal. A few sessions will permanently reduce underarm hairs. It will also soften the hair follicles and consequently lighten the hair colors. IPL-underarm laser hair removal will also spare you from chicken skin or raised bumps and hair ingrown. Be sure to go to qualified clinics to ensure effective treatments. In the Philippines and Palau, try dropping by Dr. Almond Derla’s clinic, LaEstetica International. His staff will gladly assist you if you have any queries regarding the treatment. You can also visit the website to know more about the services offered in his clinics.

Impurities

Deodorant, dirt, and sweating can accumulate over time. Maybe you just need to exfoliate your armpits regularly to remove the impurities and dead cells. So grab your favorite exfoliating soap and scrub away those impurities!

Hyper-pigmentation

Dark underarms could be due to your genetic make-up. You can try using whitening creams to make your armpits lighter. If creams don’t work, consider bleaching and peeling but like IPL-underarm laser hair removal, go to qualified clinics, like LaEstetica International.

So before throwing away your sexy sleeveless outfits, remember that there is still hope to make your dark underarms lighter. For all you know, one of the solutions I mentioned may be the answer to your shady problem.
