Whitening Depigmentation of Genital Area

The pigmentation of the genital area varies depending on age and ethnic factors. Combinations of several sessions of fractional laser (Q-switched Nd/YAG) with different acids such as trichloroacetic at different concentrations have been used to lighten the genital area, with disparate results depending on the degree of genital pigmentation.
