I have blackish skin on my buttline and in my inner thighs. Is there any solution to this? Buttline skin is more black than inner thighs

Buttline skin is more black than inner thighs This condition is known as acanthosis nigricans, which is characterized by thick, dark, velvety skin in body folds and creases. To help improve this condition, you can try using a topical cream containing Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Corticosteroids. An example of a cream that combines these ingredients is Tri-Luma cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected areas once daily at night. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight, managing any underlying medical conditions like diabetes, and wearing loose-fitting clothing can also help improve the appearance of the skin.
