Waxing is not meant to deal or reduce darkness. In fact recently waxed areas can get tanned faster because of lesser protective layers of skin available.
Next Steps
it would be best to get it examined and get a prescription properly with a dermatologist. you may also choose to do an online consultation with me for the same.
Health Tips
start using a sunscreen in the meantime
