Intimate Skin Lightening
What is Intimate Skin Lightening?
A safe and effective skin brightening treatment using gentle Alpha hydroxy acids and beta hydroxy acids to make the skin more even and uniformed in the affected areas.
What does skin lightening treat?
Skin lightening treats hyperpigmentation. This hyperpigmentation in intimate areas is usually caused by hormones, genetics or hyper-friction. Hyper-friction is one of the most common causes. Hyper-friction is when there is continuous rubbing in an area that is a bit excessive and causes inflammation and discoloration of the skin. This rubbing causes the top layer of skin (epidermis) to deteriorate resulting in skin hardening and darkness. Sweat and bacteria that are found in these areas can also contribute along with excessive deodorant use.
Treatment
kin brightening Treatments can be done on various parts of the body in need of lightening. The affected area(s) will be thoroughly cleansed and a gentle formulation of lactic acid is applied to the area along with a safe and effective brightening peel. The needs of the client and severity of the hyperpigmentation will determine the number of layers needed.
To prepare for each treatment, do not wax or shave less than 5-7 days before.
3 sessions are recommended for treatments. Each service should be repeated every 10-15 days. Results may vary depending on the severity of the hyperpigmentation, lifestyle and root cause. Each session will last around 45 minutes.
After treatment the skincare specialist will discuss with you homecare and products to boost the treatments effectiveness for the best results.

Aftercare
Post care after treatment is very important to see maximum results and to properly take care of newly treated skin.
An AHA/BHA mask will be applied before leaving the treatment room. This must be left on for 4 hours and then rinsed off. This should also be purchased by the client for at home use. This mask should be used 3 days post treatment.
After day three of each treatment there will be some noticeable dryness of the treated area(s) and major or minor sloughing of skin or flakiness.
Hoo Ha cleanser is recommended and should be used to digest dead skin cells and helps prevent itching for dryness of the treated area
The bikini bottom serum helps increase the brightening effects
Hoo Ha lotion is essential to moisturize, hydrate, decrease itch and continue to brighten
Apply talc free powder to assist with hyper-friction and avoid post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. (Prana anti-frixtion powder helps minimize irritation)
