How to lighten the areola and solve your problems

Some women have very dark areolas. The normal areola of adolescent women is rose red. If the areola is particularly dark during pregnancy or breastfeeding, you can apply some areola creams containing whitening ingredients. When choosing areola creams, pay attention to its ingredients.

1. Areola cream contains some whitening ingredients , which will have some effect when used, and the side effects are not obvious. However, whether the effect is significant remains to be seen. If you can avoid physical stimulation and take proper care of your breasts, the swelling will naturally fade as time goes by, but it is impossible to return to the state before childbirth.

2. If you stop breastfeeding after delivery , the areola will shrink along with the total breast volume. If it still feels too big, surgical ring reduction surgery is the only option. If you think the color of your areola is too dark, you may need to consider using laser to destroy the pigment cell layer. If a woman is afraid of laser, she can also consider "fruit acid scrubbing", but the effectiveness still needs to be studied.

3. The skin around the areola is very delicate and fine, so be careful when choosing it to avoid choosing inferior areola creams that may cause irritation and allergies! It is recommended to choose areola creams containing natural herbal ingredients such as arbutin, rose essence, and pomegranate extract.

【Arbutin】 is known as "plant gold". It can quickly and effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase in the nipple and areola, block the formation of areola melanin, and accelerate the decomposition and excretion of melanin.

[Rose Essence] Promotes local blood circulation of nipples and areolas, strengthens microvessels, activates blood circulation and removes blood stasis, and can reduce the dark color of nipples and areolas, making breasts delicate and rosy.

【Pomegranate Extract】It is a powerful antioxidant ingredient that promotes the metabolism of areola cells, has the effects of whitening, anti-inflammatory, shrinking pores, and making the areola delicate and smooth.

Be careful: Never choose products containing pigments, flavors, chemical synthetics, heavy metals, hormones, kojic acid and salicylic acid, as they will seriously damage the skin of the areola.
