Genital Whitening (Vaginal Bleaching) in Ankara
A woman’s self-confidence is directly proportional to feeling beautiful in every aspect. Today’s modern woman is well aware that a healthy sexual life is linked to feeling comfortable and secure with her genital area.
Body beauty should be evaluated as a whole; therefore, correcting visible flaws in the genital area is a natural extension of a woman’s pursuit of beauty. For this reason, our patients frequently apply for genital aesthetic operations.
Genital Area Whitening, or more commonly known as Vaginal Bleaching, is among the aesthetic procedures we frequently perform. The external part of our genital area that we can see with the naked eye is called the Vulva.
Normally, this area has a color close to the skin tone. In some women, this color darkens over time, and skin discoloration occurs in a wide area extending from the groin to the inner folds of the legs, sometimes even spilling out of the bikini line. This darkening, which can be seen from the edges of underwear or bikini, attracts attention and can be disturbing.
What are the causes of Genital Darkening?
There are various reasons for this hyperpigmentation (darkening). Darkening in the genital area can be seen due to reasons such as:
Post-waxing or laser hair removal irritation,
Hormonal changes after menarche (puberty),
Pregnancy and post-partum periods (Melasma),
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS),
Use of birth control pills,
Constant friction caused by wearing tight, synthetic underwear.
In some young girls, increasing darkening in the genital area can be seen after the first menstruation solely due to their genetic structure. Although it is more common in dark-skinned women, darkening in the genital area can also be seen in very fair-skinned women. This situation, which is extremely annoying for patients, is a serious aesthetic problem that drives the person to hide their genital area.
A woman who is not satisfied with her genital appearance may avoid sexual intercourse and begin to experience problems with her partner.
Laser Genital Whitening (Bleaching)
We can achieve the shortest and most definitive solution for color darkening in the genital area with Laser Treatment. It is possible to obtain a definite solution in a maximum of 20 minutes, mostly with local anesthesia, for genital area darkening.
As with all skin, the cause of darkening in the genital area is the increase in the number of melanocyte cells in the dermis layer. With the laser, these cells in the dermis layer are destroyed, and the skin is renewed.
Laser Genital Whitening is an extremely easy procedure that a person can have done even during a lunch break and return to their daily life immediately afterward (Lunchtime Procedure). The number of sessions varies according to the intensity of the darkening. Mostly, a significant lightening in color is seen even after the first session.
In the same session with laser genital whitening treatment, Genital Tightening, Vaginal Rejuvenation, or skin smoothing procedures can also be performed. Thus, the person will find solutions to many aesthetic problems at the same time.
Post-Procedure Care: What to do after Laser Whitening?
To accelerate the skin’s renewal process after the laser genital whitening procedure, you must use the creams and oils recommended by your doctor. Since the darkened skin will peel off and be replaced by new and fresh skin after the procedure, there may be a slight stinging, redness, edema, and a feeling of dryness on the skin. Using the recommended creams regularly during this process will speed up your recovery and increase the success chance of the procedure.
Is Laser Vaginal Bleaching Harmful?
Laser technology, which has been used all over the world for about 100 years, has no proven harm. No permanent damage occurs on the skin after the laser whitening process. Side effects that may occur due to the heat effect are minimized with medications to be used after the procedure.
Side effects such as pain during intercourse, loss of sexual desire, or difficulty in intercourse are definitely not seen after the laser whitening procedure. The penetration depth of laser beams varies between 1-4mm depending on the procedure, and no damage is seen in procedures performed at this depth (it does not affect the ovaries or uterus).
Are Whitening Creams or Home Remedies Effective?
Some cures are recommended to lighten the darkened skin color in the genital area. Herbal cures or some creams sold on the market are used for this process.
However, these creams, which need to have chemical peeling properties to be effective, both give results in very long periods and often result in disappointment and waste of time because the necessary concentration cannot be used since the skin and mucosa in the genital area are sensitive.
Serious chemical burns and side effects can be seen, especially in people with sensitive skin structures, leading to hard-to-treat damage. Therefore, I recommend that the genital area whitening process be performed under doctor control and with an appropriate laser device.
