Intimate areas are covered by layers of clothes throughout the year and are less likely to be exposed to environmental elements. Many women deal with dark skin in their private areas but are uncomfortable talking about it. Hormones, aging, and weight gain are other contributing factors to the darkening of the genital areas.
Intimate skin whitening is the process of lightening skin color around the female genitals. This treatment increases women’s self-confidence and makes them more comfortable with this body part. Bleaching is a common procedure that helps to lighten the hair on the arms, lower back, or lips.
In genital bleaching, the dark area of the skin is bleached to make it lighter in color.
