Armpit Whitening Treatments in Malaysia

You may be interested in lightening your armpits if your skin has darkened from exposure to deodorants, shaving, or other irritants. You can seek for effective medical solutions available in Malaysia like:

Laser Therapy – Targets melanin to lighten dark patches

Like other parts of the body, the skin of the underarms can darken or become discolored. Underarm skin that’s darker than the rest of the skin can keep some people from dressing in sleeveless shirts, wearing bathing suits in public, or participating in sports.

Causes of Dark Underarms

There are several reasons why develop dark underarms. Some common causes include excessive sweating, which can lead to friction and irritation, and the accumulation of dead skin cells.

Hormonal changes, such as those that occur during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause, can also cause dark underarms.
Certain medical conditions, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and insulin resistance, can also cause hyperpigmentation in the underarm area.
Using certain cosmetics, such as antiperspirants and deodorants, can also contribute to dark underarms, as well as regular shaving or waxing, which can cause skin irritation. It’s also worth noting that genetics can play a role in determining skin tone, so some people may simply have naturally darker underarms.

How to Whiten Armpits

If you want lighter underarms, here are the first steps you can take to address some basic causes of dark underarms:

Change your deodorant or antiperspirant. Seek out a different brand. Consider switching to a natural alternative, like baking soda or apple cider vinegar. Some people may prefer to stop using deodorant or antiperspirant altogether.
Stop shaving. Try Permanent Hair Removal instead.
Exfoliate. Use a gentle body scrub or exfoliant on the area two to three times per week. Since the underarm skin is thin and delicate, opt for an exfoliant that’s intended for sensitive skin. You can even use a face exfoliant.
Wear loose-fitting clothes.
Try to quit smoking, if you do.

Underarm Whitening Clinic Treatments

There are several different methods for underarm whitening that are usually performed in clinics, including:

Each method works by addressing the underlying causes of dark underarms, such as hyperpigmentation and skin discoloration, to help brighten and even out skin tone. During a laser treatment, for example, a specialized laser is used to penetrate the skin and target areas of hyperpigmentation. HydraFacial, on the other hand, uses a combination of hydration, exfoliation, and skin brightening ingredients to help rejuvenate the skin. Regardless of the method chosen, underarm whitening can help to restore confidence and improve the appearance of underarms, resulting in brighter, even-toned skin that is smoother and more radiant.
