Intimate bleaching

Intimate bleaching is the professional topical solution for gynecological-aesthetic problems such as intimate hyperpigmentation (dark discoloration). We perform this treatment on both women and men.

Intimate hyperpigmentation is caused by excess melanin. This results in the typical dark discoloration around the vulva / scrotum / anal area.

What does intimate bleaching involve?

The success of the product lies in its dual action: corrective and pigment regulating. As a result, pigment will reduce markedly.

After your treatment at our Clinic, you will need to continue to apply a special cream at home for several months to enhance the effect.

We get tremendous demand for bleaching procedures for the intimate zones. Especially since we do over 200 hair removal sessions at the level of the bikini line and anal area on a monthly basis. People get a familiar feeling and dare to raise the taboo around genital bleaching.

We see that these hyperpigmentations sometimes cause aesthetic deformities, and as a result can cause a huge negative impact on both the quality of life and the impact of our patients' sexual life. Therefore, we are happy to perform this intimate treatment on our patients.

We are immensely familiar with these procedures, so you need have no shame whatsoever!

Notice! This intimate bleaching treatment only works on hyperpigmentation. If you would like more info on vagina rejuvenation or vagina rejuvenation, (tightening the vagina or making the vagina more aesthetically pleasing) we recommend you check out this page.

Why is hyperpigmentation present on these areas?

The activity of our melanocytes is higher in these intimate areas, which is why many people have dark discolorations in these places.

Similarly, there are specific triggering factors that trigger melanin production in these areas:

  • aging
  • hereditary pigmentation, especially in skin types IV, V and VI and above
  • hormonal changes: pregnancy, puberty... estrogenic stimulation causes the activity of the enzyme tyrosinase to produce more melanin
  • beauty habits such as waxing can cause folliculitis, which causes inflammation, and this inflammation in turn can stimulate melanocytes to produce more melanin (thus causing the dark discolorations)
  • certain exciting clothing, mainly the friction causes the skin to thicken (hyperkeratinization of the skin) this also causes the skin to darken. Most common areas are: inner thighs

What indications can be treated?

  • pigmentation disorder of the vulva and scrotum
  • pigmentation disorder after waxing
  • hereditary pigmentation disorder
  • pigmentation disorder after pregnancy / breastfeeding (please note this treatment can only be performed at the earliest 6 months after your delivery or 6 months after completely stopping breastfeeding)

What does intimate bleaching work on?

  • The active ingredients suppress melanocytes so they produce less pigment while fading pre-existing pigmentation.
  • The intimate bleaching peel contains a combination of multiple active ingredients that help lighten the skin.

How does intimate bleaching treatment at our Clinic proceed?

A treatment consists of 2 phases: The first phase happens in our Clinic and the second phase happens at your home.

Phase 1:

  • At our Clinic, we start with the intensive depigmentation procedure! Before we start, the entire intimate area is cleaned with water and a disinfectant product.
  • The inside of the labia is protected with a type of Vaseline so that the product cannot migrate.
  • When the preparation is done we proceed to the application of the peel. With a special brush the peel is applied to the desired areas, we leave it to act for a few minutes. You may feel a slight tingling sensation, but it will not hurt.
  • When we reach the soaking time, the peel is neutralized and the area is completely re-cleaned with lukewarm water.
  • After the neutralization of your peel we apply a specially developed mask to the areas so that the effect can continue for several hours. When the mask has been applied correctly, a special foil is placed over it. It is important that the mask can continue its effect for another 2 hours. Meanwhile you can already go home.

Phase 2:

  • When you are at home we enter phase 2 of treatment.
  • When the mask has had 2 hours to take effect, you may rinse off both the film and the mask in the shower with lukewarm water. Repeat this step until all the product is gone.
  • You have been given another care mask by us that you may now apply to the area. It is best to lie down on a towel and apply the mask to the treated area. Let it take effect for 10-15 min.
  • 2 days after your treatment at our Clinic, you may apply Intimate @home depigmentation cream over the treated area. Be careful not to get cream on the inside of the vagina or on the glans in men! Use this ointment once a day. Apply at night before bed on the treated area for 2 to 3 months. This cream reduces 86% of the enzyme "tyrosinase" (responsible for the production of melanin). And 68% of melanocytes are also stopped.

Keep in mind that hyperpigmentation can be treated well, but over time the melanocytes will reappear and so you may need treatment again after a few years.
