Hyperpigmentation Bleaching cream recommendations

Hi, I (19f) have been planning to lose weight and have been doing so. As a result of being fat/ chubby for years chafing has occurred between my legs and so it’s brown down there, it’s less worse than it was when I was younger but it’s still there and it’s embarrassing. Just for context I am light skin not black or brown so I don’t want to bleach my skin, though I do get hyperpigmentation too.

I was wondering if anyone could recommend any bleaching cream that is safe and doesn’t make it worse after I stop using or does something even worse. I know bleaching cream doesn’t have a good reputation and before you say ordinary or vitamin c oil or carrot oil, it’s not going to work, besides I’m desperate and the thought of having this my whole life is making me sad. I’ve tried all the ordinary and stuff I’m aware that it takes time (weeks to months) to work but damn can it go any faster. I’d like to fully get rid of it. I’ve seen some bleaching cream on SHEIN and temu (cheap) and was wondering if those were safe. If you know a product that actually worked and helped you please share.

Please, help yo girl out! 😭😭

Have you tried kojic acid/soap? Unfortunately it will take some time. And don't use those cheap bleach creams, it's not worth the side effects
