This description sounds like acanthosis nigricans. This is a condition where your skin​ folds like underarms, neck and face becomes dark. It is either genetic or due to sedantry lifestyle and overweight. This can be treated. Please call me and visit me clinic. I can give very good results with chemical peeling.
