Use a skin lightening cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us

I am Dr.Kakkar. I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.

You may use kojic acid based cream, twice daily (Kojic cream). It is non-irritating and suitable for sensitive skin.

Trimming or not is your personal choice however, trimming would definitely be more hygenic.

Regards
