How to lighten the color of the areola

The areola may seem inconspicuous, but it can have a great impact on a person's breasts. Many people who love beauty pay special attention to some small details. Generally speaking, there will be no changes in a woman's areola before breastfeeding. With pregnancy, the color of the areola will appear darker and darker, and finally more and more melanin will be condensed, so the color of the areola reflects a person's condition.

How to Lighten the Color of Your Areola

The first medical technology is laser lightening of the areola: the advantage is that the effect is fast, but the disadvantage is that the wound recovery time is long and the cost is high. The cost depends on the size and color depth of the areola. The recovery period is about 10-12 days. After the scab falls off, the areola will turn pink like that of a young girl. However, depending on your physical condition, it will return to its original color in about 3-6 months.

The second medical technology is permanent bleaching: tattooing the areola into pink. Although the effect is permanent and will not fade, red tattoos are difficult to remove. Once a pink nipple is tattooed, it may be difficult to remove.

The third type of daily health care is to choose whitening products to achieve ideal results: use whitening products containing arbutin, L-ascorbic acid, and A acid to apply to the areola area, which has a nourishing effect, but the whitening effect is limited. In addition, for those whose areola darkens due to hormonal changes after pregnancy and childbirth, since melanin is deposited in the dermis, and whitening products are only effective in diluting the melanin in the epidermis, applying whitening skin care products on the nipples will not be effective.

It is worth mentioning that since the dark color of the areola is mostly a personal factor, the color of the areola of women who undergo laser whitening surgery will usually return to its original color within 3-6 months. If you want to delay the darkening of the areola, you can use substances such as fruit acid, arbutin and vitamin A acid for daily maintenance to delay the darkening time. Among them, laser areola lightening to restore the areola to a girl's pink color is the best effect, but attention should also be paid to postoperative care:

1. Within 3-4 days after the areola is bleached, local swelling and purple-black areola are normal. The areola wound will form a scab and fall off on its own. Before the wound heals, be careful not to get it wet, and pay attention to local hygiene and conditioning to avoid infection, and do not wear tight clothing.

2. Due to individual differences, a few customers may experience varying degrees of dull and dark color after areola bleaching. This is a pigmentation phenomenon caused by physical trauma, hyperpigmentation or infection. It will gradually return to normal after a month or several months and no treatment is required.

3. During the recovery period of the areola bleaching area, the area should not be exposed to water, and activities such as fumigation, sauna, swimming, and intense physical exercise are prohibited. Use cotton swabs to apply the repair agent to the wound for more than 10 days, 4-5 times a day, to allow the repair agent to be absorbed naturally to prevent discoloration.
