Asked By:mxcolors in Independence, Kansas

Hello, I NEED your guidance here. I am desperate. I recently had CO2 laser applied on my skin as a bleaching treatment, however, I just noticed the color of my skin around my crotch and the whole area is WAY DARKER, you can literally see where the laser was cause those areas are darker. And it looks so terrible I literally want to cry. Is this normal? how can I fix this? :'(
