Dark Underarms

2021-06-02 01:13:27
I have been having this problem since I was 13years old .After I turned 18 I took plenty of sittings of chemical peels ,skin brightning lasers ,and skin brightning serums it helped initially.However now I can see that the underarms are still dark and not fully clean or bright. I want it to be bright just like the skin colour of any other part of my body . I even lost weight for this treatment but I again gained (which I ll loose soon ) .Please help
