Due to waxing my underarms became dark,I stopped waxing and there is slight improvement.pls suggest Chemical peels or laser what should I go for best results now? Hydroquinone was prescribed but didn't work. Can chemical peels cause further darkness? My dermatologist suggested it but she didn't take any tests or check for anything else.
