Why is the color of my labia majora like this...

My labia majora are so dark... They're so dark that I wonder, "Is it really possible to get this dark?" I knew that the skin there is thin and delicate, so it gets pigmented easily, but when I casually asked my friends, they said it's not like that for them.

So lately, I've even been looking into whitening treatments at OB/GYNs. It turns out there are more laser treatments and things like that than I thought. I wonder if I'm the only one who didn't know about this.

But I don't know what's safe, and since it's such a sensitive area, I'm scared of potential side effects.

I've seen reviews where people say it improved, so I'm tempted, but I'm so easily swayed by what others say.

I'm worried whether it will just get darker if I leave it alone, or if I should start managing it now. Honestly, I never thought something like this would lower my self-esteem, but it's bothering me so much lately that I can't even sleep at night.

Among the places with good whitening reviews, Juyeon and Gangnam Esther seem to be good options, so I'm thinking of going for a consultation. Is it true that a lot of people get labia majora whitening done?

Could only those who have actually had it done please tell me about the feeling and changes afterward?
