How To Remove Underarm Spots After Childbirth?
Removing underarm spots, those dark shadows that sometimes appear during pregnancy and do not go away after delivery, is not an easy task. Sometimes they last for months, years and there are even those who after so many failures have no choice but to accept them and live with them.
With regard to underarm spots, the first thing you should know is that not all pigmentation and skin are the same. No one can give you an infallible recipe or trick that will free you from such “blackness”, because perhaps what works for others will not work for you.
For this reason, we have decided to put to your consideration the best ideas we have with the intention that you will be the one to try them and at the end tell us which one works for you.
Your health, beauty and experience is important to us.
Remedies for underarm spots
Potato water promotion
Take a potato, wash it well, cut it into pieces and put it in the blender without adding water. You will notice that as soon as you begin to beat it, it releases its juices.
This juice is what you will use to remove underarm stains.
Give yourself a boost by using cheesecloth soaked in potato juice. Apply them for 15 minutes three times a day. Do the remedy for three weeks.
At the end of each session, remove the gauze and let the juice dry under your arms naturally. Then you can wash with soap and water.
With baking soda and lemon
Lemon juice is a very popular natural product for bleaching spots.
To make this remedy, cut a lemon in half, sprinkle baking soda inside it and gently rub it on your armpits.
Then, let your armpits soak for 5 minutes and remove the mixture with plenty of soap and water. Dry off and apply talcum powder or some refreshing cream.
Do this remedy three times a day for two weeks. If you notice that your skin is irritated or not whitening, leave it.
Raw sugar and hydrogen peroxide
Exfoliate the skin under your arms using raw sugar. To do this, you must wet your armpits with tap water. Take a handful of sugar and rub it in for 1 minute.
Next, wash with plenty of soap and water, dry the area and apply hydrogen peroxide for 15 minutes.
You will do this remedy twice every day for three weeks.
Pumice stone and milk
Wet your armpits with water. Exfoliate your skin with a pumice stone for about 1 minute in each armpit. Wash with plenty of soap and water, dry yourself and put on cow’s milk fomentations for 15 minutes.
This remedy must be done for a whole month to see the results.
Raw sugar and vinegar
Use the raw sugar to exfoliate the skin under your arms for about 1 minute. Remember that you must first wet your armpits with the water from the sink.
After exfoliation wash off with water. Dry the area and apply vinegar creams for 20 minutes, two to three times a day.
Then, you will remove the vinegar using plenty of soap and water and you will dry well.
This idea should be carried out for a whole month.
How to remove underarm spots after childbirth?
Underarm spots usually have several causes:
- Poor hygiene in that area
- The constant rubbing with clothing
- Long-term use of alcohol deodorants and other hygiene products
- Excess sweat and dead cells that mix with dirt and sometimes stay there for a whole day
- Genetic causes
Dark spots under the arms that appear during pregnancy sometimes disappear on their own long after delivery.
If this is not your case, try some of our remedies, maintain good hygiene in the area and do not use deodorants that contain alcohol.
Ah! Very important: despite the fact that these that we suggest are natural products, for the protection of your baby, the remedies should be done away from breastfeeding. Take advantage of your sleeping hours to apply them.
