Extremely Dark Underarms With Dark Pelvic Region. No Help From Home Remedies. Suggestions To Lighten The Areas?
Hi. I have very dark underarms and the area around my pelvic region is extrememly dark too. I have been trying various home remedies but the skin wont lighten. I dont shave my underarms ever and don't use deodrants either. I use alum on my underarms to keep odour at bay. Please advise what I can do to lighten the above mentioned areas. Thanks.

Hi,
Generally this is common to have these area remain some dark complexion.
Avoid using alum on these area.
Use Kojic acid cream on affected areas.
You can use Kojic acid soap as well.
Ok and take care.
