Laser Genital and Vulvar Whitening

In the vulva, which is the external genital area, darkening of the skin may occur due to genetic factors, hair removal procedures, or deformities.

This condition can be bothersome, reduce self-confidence, and cause a decrease in sexual desire for some patients. Successful results can be achieved with laser genital whitening. If darkening is also present around the anus and groin area, the procedure can be applied to these areas as well.

What is Laser Genital Whitening?

Laser genital whitening is a cosmetic procedure that uses laser technology to lighten the skin tone in the genital area. This procedure is preferred by individuals concerned about hyperpigmentation or darkening of the skin in their intimate area, which can result from various factors such as hormonal changes, aging, friction, or genetics.

What Causes Darkening in the Genital Area?

Darkening can occur due to hormonal influences during pregnancy, the use of birth control pills, the effects of aging, hormonal disorders such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and adrenal gland diseases, hair removal methods like waxing and laser epilation, use of certain creams and medications, previous surgical operations in the area, wearing synthetic underwear, and genetic factors.

How is Laser Genital Whitening Performed?

Laser beams break down the pigment in the skin to produce a whitening effect. The laser has both thermal (heat-producing) and ablative (destructive) effects, causing temporary damage to the tissue. The epidermis, which is the outer layer of the skin, is peeled off. Tissue repair occurs due to the migration of cells to the damaged area, resulting in a healthier and more radiant skin.

Laser Genital Whitening Prices in Ankara 2026

The price of laser genital whitening can vary significantly depending on various factors such as the clinic’s location, the expertise of the practitioner, the number of sessions required, and any additional services or treatments included.

Before the procedure, patients should be evaluated for suitability and necessary requirements. For pricing and detailed information, you can contact our clinic.

What Should Be Considered After Laser Vulvar (Genital) Whitening?

After laser genital whitening, patients can resume their daily activities. The treated area should not come into contact with water for 1-2 days. Desired results can be achieved in a single session if recommendations are followed for 10 days. Depending on the degree of skin darkening, 2-3 sessions may be needed.

Is Laser Genital Whitening Harmful?

Since the laser only affects up to 3-4 mm beneath the skin surface and is a superficial procedure, laser vulvar/genital whitening is considered a safe treatment. It has no effect on the uterus, cervix, ovaries, or other internal abdominal organs.
