Prevention
Hyperpigmentation is a normal condition that can be seen in almost all humans, however, there are certain preventive measures that should be followed to reduce the rate of hyperpigmentation, and these measures are:
- Maintain good and proper personal hygiene.
- Wear loose or properly fitting clothes in the buttocks area.
- Eat proper and well-balanced diets [4]
- Avoid the usage of fabric softeners.
- Take a shower immediately after an exercise session in order to wash away sweat and bacteria.
- Stay away from hair-removing lotions. These lotions sometimes possess chemicals that may be dangerous to the skin.
- Make use of good sunscreen to avoid further hyperpigmentation.
- Exfoliate and moisturize the skin regularly.
- Drink a lot of water.
- Minimize shaving. Shaving destroys the skin by causing scarring and darkening of the area.
- Make use of mild, unscented, non-acidic soap when washing the thighs and buttocks area.
- Avoid bad body lotions and creams.
