How To Remove Black Marks From Underarms?

My daughter who is 12 had her underarms waxed for the 1st time. After that it was kinda red and she said that it stings too much. So she took a cold shower and used her deodorant (Crystal roll on) after that. The next day both underarms had blackish marks (looms like burn marks) and now it wont go away. How do we treat these? She does not want to have blackish underarms. Thanks.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi
I think she has had an Allergic reaction to the deodorant since she applied it to her underarms after shaving
Let her not use the deodorant for a few days
Also she can apply kojiglo acid containing creams over the dark areas twice daily
After a few days she can resume using deodorant
Thank you
