Anal Bleaching
What Is It For?
Anal bleaching is an aesthetic clinic treatment that works to lighten the color of the skin around the anus for aesthetic purposes. Intimate bleaching is becoming increasingly popular for those looking to achieve a more uniform skin tone in their most intimate areas, and can be utilized by both men and women patients at our aesthetic clinic.

Our Approach
Our intimate bleaching and chemical peels help suppress the action of melanocytes, thus lowering the amount of melanin produced (pigment). Melanocytes are the cells that make pigment throughout your body. We have the highest levels of these cells in the genital and anal regions. Pigmentation varies by person, but friction in the anal area and other environmental and hormonal factors can increase pigmentation. By utilizing a customized brightening cream in intimate areas, we can tailor your anal lightening experience to deliver optimal results that you will love. In addition, we provide those who receive our men's aesthetic clinic services with all the education on post-treatment care to know how to maintain your anal bleaching results at home over time.
No waxing, shaving, or chemical hair removal (ex. Nair) for 2 days before or after using intimate bleaching cream.
No open sores or lesions.
If you have a medical history of herpes infections then you must begin antivirals 3 days before the start of the bleaching cream and take a small daily dose throughout treatment. You can discontinue after treatment is completed.
FAQs
Does anal bleaching use actual bleach? Will it lighten the hair in the anal region?
No, the bleach for anal area does not contain actual bleach and therefore does not interact with the hair it touches. Early on, anal bleaching solutions had various harsh ingredients, like peroxide, which would lighten hair and cause irritation. Our professional anal bleaching formula is safe and effective.
Is there any non-aesthetic related reason why someone would bleach their anus?
Professional anal bleaching is mostly for aesthetic purposes. However, if you’re doing laser hair removal in the anal area where you also have darker pigmentation, our med spa for men may recommend bleaching the intimate area. This will help to lighten the skin so the laser can be set at a higher setting to deliver optimal results.
How long does professional anal bleaching last?
The longevity of intimate bleaching varies. Patients who lift several shades (usually more than 3 shades) rarely return to their baseline darkness, but will gradually darken over time. In patients who only lifted 1-2 shades, they may see themselves returning to baseline in one to two years.
Can I do anal bleaching at home?
Yes! At your scheduled appointment patients will receive a prescription for a medical-grade anal bleaching cream and have the entire protocol reviewed with InjectorChris. The patient will complete the anal bleaching process at home.
Can I have sex after anal bleaching?
Yes. It is important to remove the bleaching cream prior to any anal play. If any irritation is present after sex it is advised to wait 1-2 days before resuming use of the bleaching cream.
How much does professional anal bleaching cost?
Our intimate area bleaching consultation costs $500 and includes a prescription and 1 refill of the medical grade bleaching cream. The cream costs about $75, plus shipping from our trusted compounding pharmacy.
How many treatments do you need for anal bleaching?
Expected results should be noticeable in 4-6 weeks. If a patient wants to possibly go lighter after utilizing the additional refill, we can assess to determine the next best steps.
Can anal bleaching products be bought over the counter?
There are various products on the market that are sold directly to consumers that help to lighten intimate areas. We have done a full market review to try the most popular products and found no success. Our intimate bleaching protocol includes a prescribed medical-grade bleaching cream to deliver optimal results. Creams with this strength of active ingredients require a prescription for purchase.
How much lighter can I expect my anus to get after the treatment?
While our bleach for genital areas has consistently provided great results, we do find that a great portion of the result varies on the patient. Being consistent with the pre and post-treatment regimen is crucial to receiving optimal results. Some patients with extensive hyperpigmentation may see substantial results, while others with minimal hyperpigmentation may only see 1-2 shades lifted.
Is there any way to extend anal bleaching results?
Yes! We highly recommend laser hair removal, as the friction from shaving, waxing, etc. can darken the skin.
How is the recovery process for anal bleaching?
While using the bleaching cream, patients may experience some mild dryness and irritation but nothing difficult to tolerate. Keeping the area hydrated will help to soothe any side effects.
Does Lushful Aesthetics see female patients for anal bleaching?
Yes! We see many female patients (and trans men) for anal bleaching.
