A prescription bleaching cream such as Triluma® or even a prescription cortisone such as Topicort® may even out an area of hyperpigmentation on the body. Please consult a board certified aesthetic dermatologist for a consultation.

This is often genetic and due to hormones or rubbing but chemical peels and skin lightening often help.  Best, Dr. Emer.

There are many vascular and fractional lasers that can help this area.  I suggest speaking to a cosmetic dermatologist with experience in lasers.  Best, Dr. Emer.
