Innovations in genital aesthetics
The field of genital aesthetics can be considered among the increasingly popular trend treatment in recent years. As a dermatologist, it is appropriate to discuss medical treatments in genital area aesthetics. Of course, for structural or shape deformities in this area, it is more appropriate to seek support from surgical specialties.
Darkening of the genital area is the topic of today's discussion. Among the causes of genital area darkening in women, the primary cause is the use of waxing. The second cause can be attributed to color changes due to bacterial and fungal infections in the area. Lastly, we can see genital area darkening due to racial and genetic reasons.
To address genital area and underarm darkening caused by wax hair removal, it is advisable to change the hair removal method. Generally, after laser hair removal systems, the darkening will also improve as the hair follicles become inactive.
Bacterial infections such as erythrasma and fungal infections in the genital area can also cause redness and subsequently lead to spots. Additionally, excessive sweating can lead to darkening in both the underarm and genital areas. These conditions can be detected during a dermatological examination, and with the correct treatment, a lightening of the color can be achieved in a short time.
Finally, let's address the complaints of darkening that occur in individuals with darker skin types due to genetic factors, for which we find no additional cause. For genetic racial darkening, which is the most challenging to treat, our clinic applies laser treatments for spots and color lightening peeling treatments along with home care products. While the success rate may be lower compared to other causes, it is still possible to achieve pleasing results.
In summary, a dermatological examination is crucial for complaints of underarm and genital darkening. Because when we identify the cause, your spots can completely disappear in as little as three weeks. In some cases, repeated session treatments and home maintenance products may be required.
