Can sweating whiten the skin?
In general, sweating does not directly whiten the skin. Although sweating helps promote metabolism and detoxification, skin color is primarily determined by the amount and distribution of melanin in the skin, and there is no direct relationship between sweating and melanin production or distribution.
Skin whitening can be achieved through using whitening products, proper sun protection, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. For more noticeable whitening results, medical aesthetic treatments such as chemical peels, hyaluronic acid injections, hydroquinone injections, photorejuvenation (IPL), and picosecond laser therapy may be considered.
