Light chemical peels plus Melapads twice daily can help reduce your pigmentation PIH. Most important, you likely need laser hair removal to prevent recurrence. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian
Hello! It is a bit difficult to tell what type of reaction you are having form the photos. I highly suggest meeting with someone in person. Sometimes a topical cream/solution can be applied to clear up ingrown hairs. Pending on if there is scarring from the ingrown hair (unlikely) a laser or topical brightening cream can be used to lighting any pigment changes. If you haven't already, you may want to consider laser hair removal so that you won't have to continuously battle ingrown hairs that are caused from shaving or waxing the area. Good luck!
Thank you for your question and posting pictures (I'm not sure why we got so many...). It looks ands sounds like you have Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). We have been very successful using the PicoSure laser with the FOCUS and / or Flat Lenses eliminating hyperpigmentation with a series of treatments. FOCUS lens treatments have the extra benefit of reducing fine lines, wrinkles and scars. This is one of our go to treatments for patients older than 40 and worried about the signs of aging. This laser is safe for all skin types. Start with sunscreen every day! Once you have treated your hyperpigmentation to your satisfaction, you will probably need a follow treatment every 6 to 12 months depending your level of re-pigmentation. Best of luck.
