How Does Underarm Whitening Work?
At Traumpraxis Hamburg, we offer underarm whitening with a chemical peel. An acid is applied to the skin, penetrating the upper layer of the epidermis and dissolving dead skin cells. This process stimulates the regeneration of the epidermis, helping to even out pigmentation and lighten the skin.
Benefits of Underarm Whitening
The Underarm Whitening Process
Consultation
Before the treatment, we will provide a personalized consultation and answer any questions you may have about the whitening procedure.
Treatment
The armpits are cleaned and degreased immediately before the treatment. The active ingredient is then applied using the outstanding depigmentation products from Me Line. A slight burning sensation is commonly experienced during the treatment.
After the Treatment
To achieve a uniformly light complexion, the treatment should be repeated at least three times at intervals of two to four weeks. You will also receive a special cream for skincare, which should be applied for 12-16 weeks, ideally in the morning and evening. If the skin is irritated after the treatment, cooling with aloe vera gel or spray is recommended.
How Long Does Underarm Whitening Last?
The exact duration of the whitening effect depends on your skin type and other individual factors. Typically, it is advisable to refresh the underarm whitening after a few months.
Risks of Underarm Whitening
Underarm whitening is generally low-risk. Apart from a slight burning sensation during and after the treatment, there are no significant negative effects as long as the whitening process is not repeated too soon.

How Can the Armpits Be Whitened?
The skin in the armpits can be whitened using various chemical acids. It is important to rely on professional support to achieve a more uniform and pronounced whitening effect. At Traumpraxis Hamburg, we emphasize maintaining a natural skin appearance during the whitening process. People with sensitive skin should always have whitening treatments performed by a specialist.
Why Are the Armpits So Dark?
Dark discoloration of the armpits is usually a reaction to shaving. The skin responds to hair removal with changes in pigmentation. In some cases, hereditary factors can also influence the color of the underarms.
Are Dark Underarms Bad?
In most cases, discoloration of the underarm skin is primarily an aesthetic concern. Slight discoloration in this area does not usually indicate any underlying health issues.
