20s with sensitive skin, how to lighten darkness under my butt? (Photos)

Question

I am in my 20s with sensitive skin. I've had this darkness under my butt for as long as I remember. It's kinda like a birthmark. I have tried scrubs, lightening oils, and serums and a bunch of other stuff that hasn't worked. I am wondering if there any way that I could get this skin to match the surrounding areas of my bottom. Would this be like a birthmark removal, laser used for tattoos...?

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.
