Your brief mention of HS...omg. I have been dismissed, ignored, traumatised and generally bruised off by multiple doctors over the course of my life. I've never heard of this condition before. I absolutely have it. I have never heard anyone describe it so accurately before. I just live in fear of the next flare. This has given me the courage to go back and ask for help again. Thank you.

Same! I never had anything appear until my 20s but I've been at war with multiple massive and outrageously painful cysts on my bikini line. The derm. Was able to confirm what was going on but the treatment has been more "manage the mess as it comes" and it's so aggravating and embarrassing...suggested an off label use of humera or w.e it's called being shown to help people with it but th complications and blood work needed to maintain use of the medication just doesn't seem like an option for me.

Laser hair removal has been life changing for me. I considered my first appointment my entering-adulthood investment in myself, because the pain and discomfort from the boils was actually affecting my quality of life. It obviously hasn’t erased the problem (or the hair), and I never expected it to, but the mitigation and relief has been fantastic.

[@greenlean8890]

You can use an acid like glycolic acid to brighten. I personally love the fragrance free Kosas Chemistry Serum Deodorant-it works great and the acids help to brighten and improve turn over in the skin, which improves texture and stops any issues that come with shaving, like ingrowns.

[@blueelf217]

Laser hair removal and waxing. Any glycolic acid products. I have wipes/pads for the face, but will rub under the arms too. And the soaps with the acids in them. Amazon has a few.

[@sundaylibre]

@@greenlean8890Glycolic acid can help lighten but it also can do the complete opposite especially on an area where a lot of friction happens. It’s also important to note that glycolic acid is not a tyrosinase inhibitor so it does not target hyperpigmentation, it only helps to shed dead skin. Kojic acid, alpha arbutin or other tyrosinase inhibitors paired with exfoliators like lactic acid (a few days a week and at a low percentage) would be a lot more effective and less irritating than GA.

[@mabinogidrws]

I'm pretty sure I've heard another dermatologist suggest benzoyl peroxide (Panoxyl) for this as well

Been using both chlorhexidine 2% and panoxyl once ot twice daily for the last 5 weeks and has really helped my folliculitis that I have had for years. I have been to the doctor about it in the past but nothing helped as much as this had. I also lay in front of the fan after showers to give it air time. I'm going to try putting Cerave SA lotion a few times a week

[@evelynbarry5046]

Also, do not use a loofa or any kind of scrub for folliculitis. Just irritates the skin more and folliculitis will get worse 😑

SA shower gel by Natrium or La rosche posay and Cerave SA body cream or Babe body lotion. Then exfoliating like 2ice a week also using glycolic acid use it on the body after shower before your body lotion every other day.

[@lunachick7893]

Good and informative video 😊. But you can not use any soap on your hooha. The pH-level in this area is much lower (3,5-4,0) than on the skin (5,5). Ordinary soap oftentimes have an even higher pH than 5,5. Using a soap like this will make your hooha sting and burn. The low pH in this area is there to keep yeast and bad bacteria at bay. The low pH in this area Intimate soaps are quite cheap, so it shouldn't be a problem to buy.

Is there any data on skin cancer risks associated with laser hair removal?

I've had fairly good results using "hair eraser" products for my legs such as Hairo (which basically is a strong enough exfoliant to break off the hair at the skin surface) but there's obviously not an equivalent product for more sensitive skin areas. Any tips or research would be appreciated!

[@DrSamEllis]

Sorry you’re going through this! From a derm perspective we often recommend biopsy confirmation because occasionally vaginal atrophy from loss of estrogen can have an overlapping appearance and symptoms. Steroids are the gold standard treatment for lichen sclerosus and can be immensely helpful. It’s important to minimize inflammation when it comes to this condition because prolonged, uncontrolled disease can increase the risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma of the vulvar skin and can lead to permanent architectural changes of the genitalia. I mention this not to cause alarm, but rather to highlight the importance of intervention.
