Skin around the upperlip is white

2021-04-18 09:03:35
When i go for upperlip threading, the skin is white in color which seems to be discolored and veryyy pale when compared to other area of the skin Can i go for permanent hair removal treatment (electrolysis as i have pcos). And how can that white patch be reduced? Will that be back to normal when we go out in sun?? Its reallyy embarassing having a white patch around the upper lip. Please suggest !!!
