How can I lighten my vagina? Will kojic acid soap & hydroquinone 4% work? (Photo)

Question

I’m 18 and my vagina is really dark (picture attached). I’m going to use kojic acid soap and hydroquinone 4% to help lighten it, will this work? Do you have any other suggestions to lighten my vagina and how long will it take?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis.  We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. 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 discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .
