Dark underarms

The skin in the underarms is normally slightly darker than rest of the body. But if there is a stark difference, then we need to find the cause.

Causes :
➡️Friction : rubbing, scrubbing, tight clothing , obesity
➡️Acanthosis nigricans: conditioner here there is thickening and darkening of skin on neck, underarms, groin. Get insulin levels and blood sugar levels checked. Losing weight helps in improving condition.
➡️Waxing : use to hot wax with the trauma caused by pulling can cause darkening and ingrown hair
➡️Reverse shaving: shaving in a reverse direction to get a close shave can invade chances of ingrown hair. This can make skin appear darker
➡️deodorants: they contain alcohol which may cause irritation to skin and darkening.
➡️constitutional

⚠️We need to find the underlying cause for effective treatment

➡️Things to avoid
❌Waxing
❌Reverse shaving
❌Scrubbing
❌Tight clothing
❌Deodorants

➡️Treatment : we need to know whether there is only darkening or there is thickened skin with darkening.

✅Moisturise : Use lactic acid containing moistursiers.

✅If skin is thick: Use a glycolic acid based cream at night. This will help in shedding the dead skin layer and reduce darkening. Use it for 3 months to see results

✅ cream which contains kojic acid and alpha arbutin along with glycolic acid helps in reducing darkening

➡️In clinic treatment :
Chemical peels
