Genital Discoloration Treatment with Laser

The color of the female external genital area may darken over time after pregnancy, birth control pill use, weight, friction, sweating, cystic diseases, hormonal disorders, such as increases in the amount of estrogen, which is a female hormone, and some skin diseases. Especially after childbirth and in patients with dark skin color, this darkening may be more pronounced. Even if there is no reason, genetic predisposition and darkening may also occur after depilation applied to the genital area. Some of the depilation methods can also darken the color of the genital area by increasing the production of the pigment ‘melanin’ in the skin. Unwanted color change does not cause any problems physically, but it can lead to psychological problems and problems in sexual and social life. For those who want to return to their former selves and provide an aesthetic image of the genital area, it is possible to get face-pleasing results with a laser.

The laser light applied in fractional carbon dioxide and thulium laser lightening processes goes down to the lower layers of the skin, so its effectiveness and durability are greater. The penetration of laser light into the skin (population) is less than one millimeter. It doesn’t go deep. This application has no harm to menstrual pattern, ovaries or uterus.

By performing a superficial peeling process with a laser and the effect of producing melanin pigment, it can be provided to lighten the color in the genital area. Thanks to the laser light used, the ‘melanocyte’ cells located in the dermis layer of the skin, which produce the melanin pigment that causes the darkening of the color, are inactivated. With a superficial peeling process performed with a laser, the color of the genital area can be lightened by 2-3 tones. Since it is applied in a very short time and the side effects are minimal, rest is not required after application. Depending on the person’s skin structure and darkening, multiple applications may also be required in some cases. It can also be combined with laser,mesotherapy and PRP simultaneously to achieve the best effect in our clinic. It can be applied to anyone who has color darkening problems in the genital area, is older than 18 years and is not pregnant.
