Genital Whitening
Feeling Better About Yourself: "Genital Whitening"
Genital whitening is a cosmetic procedure aimed at improving the aesthetic appearance of the genital area. Over time, factors such as hormonal changes, childbirth, aging, excessive sweating, or epilation can cause the skin in the genital area to darken. This condition can negatively affect self-confidence and cause discomfort in sexual life. The genital whitening procedure lightens the color of darkened skin, resulting in a smoother and more aesthetic appearance of the genital area.
At Dr. Yeliz Akçelik Clinic, genital whitening treatment is tailored to the patient's skin type and needs. The most effective method found in our clinic is chemical peeling. Chemical peeling gently removes the upper layer of the skin, allowing the fresh skin underneath to emerge. The procedure typically takes between 20-30 minutes to complete. Afterward, a follow-up cream to be used for one month is provided to the patient.
The recovery period after treatment is short and generally comfortable. Patients can return to their normal activities on the same day. The results of the treatment are noticeable after one session, but multiple sessions are recommended for more pronounced results. Mild redness or sensitivity may occur during or after these procedures, but these side effects usually subside quickly.
