What do you recommend to lighten my skin to match the rest of my thigh? (Photo)

Question

I have really bad scarring on my groin and inner thigh it is almost 6 shades darker than I actually am. I need help.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Hyperpigmentation from any type needs a combination approach of peels like cosmelan or enlighten,  lasers like clear and brilliant and aerolase or laser genesis, radiofrequency like venus viva, and constant skin care and sun protection.  Bimontly facials with silk peel dermalinfusion is essential to hydrate, exfoliate and infuse vitamins and antioxidants into the skin.  If you have acne you can do additional treatments and peels to get more improvement.  I suggest a formal consultation with an expert in lasers and peels. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi thereI think your best bet initially would be to schedule an appointment with a Dermatologist.Perhaps getting started on a compound of Vitamin C and Hydroquinone would be the best place to start and then consider laser treatments like Clear and Brilliant and maybe Cutera EXL V.  It appears that you might have some vascular issues as well! Hard to tell by photo. See a Derm to start... Good Luck!
