Why does underarm pigmentation occur? How can I get rid of it?

Now that the weather is gradually warming up and clothes are getting lighter
I'm starting to worry more about the pigmentation in my underarms… 😢

 

I feel self-conscious about raising my arms when wearing sleeveless or short-sleeved tops.
It's something I didn't really care about before.
Lately, it's actually been kind of stressful.

 

At first, I just thought it was because of the shaving.
I've tried moisturizing, scrubbing, and various other things, but
I don't really feel like anything is changing much.
I'm worried because it actually seems to have gotten darker...

 

If you search, the causes of underarm pigmentation
It's because of friction / It's because of hair removal / It's because of hormones
It's even more confusing because the wording is all different.

 

Why underarm pigmentation occurs
Whether it can really be removed,

Is it effective with home care such as whitening cream or exfoliation?
Or I'm curious if it's just something you're born with… 🥲

 

If anyone has managed this themselves
Please share some realistic reviews on if there are any home care methods that have helped!!

    저도 이거 진짜 스트레스예요…ㅜㅜ 여름만 되면 신경 쓰여서 나시 못 입겠어요 .. 저는 특히 면도하고 나서 더 진해지는 느낌이에요

      ㅠㅠㅠㅠ 자극 받으면 더 진해질 수 있다고는 하더라고요 ㅠ

    겨드랑이 색소침착은 솔직히 완전히 없애는 건 어렵다에 한 표요 ㅜ
    대신 마찰 줄이고 보습하면 조금 옅어지는 느낌은 있었어요~

      오.. 저도 고민이였는데 조금이라도 옅어지는 걸 목표로 해야겠네요

    마찰과 제모 때문에 색소침착이 생길 수 있어요.
    미백 성분과 보습제를 병행하면 완화됩니다.
