The reasons why the areola will turn black are: personal constitution, sucking, pregnancy, age (cell) aging, female hormone secretion, nipple over-stimulation, etc., which will gradually turn dark brown and become larger in shape.
Three common methods of areola whitening:
* Laser: The advantage is quick effect, but the disadvantage is that the wound recovery time is long and the cost is high. The cost varies from 8,000-11,000 yuan according to the size of areola, and the recovery period is about 10- 12 days. After scabbing, it will turn into pink areola like a girl, but according to personal constitution, there will probably be 3-6.
* Permanent bleaching: tattoo areola pink. Although the effect will never fade, the red tattoo is difficult to remove. Pink nipples may be difficult to remove once they are tattooed.
* Whitening products: Applying whitening products containing arbutin, L-C and A- acid to areola has nourishing effect, but the whitening effect is limited. In addition, for people whose areola turns black due to changes in hormone secretion after pregnancy and delivery, because melanin precipitates in the dermis, and whitening products are only effective for lightening melanin in the epidermis, it is not effective to apply whitening skin care products on nipples.
Postoperative maintenance: Because the darkening of areola is mostly a personal factor, for women undergoing laser whitening surgery, areola will generally return to its original color within 3-6 months. If you want to delay the blackening of areola, you can carry out daily maintenance with substances such as fruit acid, arbutin and vitamin A acid to delay the blackening time.
