Does any have Acanthosis nigricans?

I posted this in the main forum but thought it couldn't hurt to post it here since it is common with diabetes..

I was wondering if anyone has had Acanthosis nigricans, which is a darkening of the skin in certain areas like the neck, armpits, etc.  I was wondering if this went away after weight loss?

Ugh, I have it. I HATE it. I'm only 4 weeks post op. I really hope it lessens but I was told it will never go away.  I haven't asked my dermatologist yet. But I'm going to next time I see him. I hope something can be done. It's so icky.

Someone replied in the other forum to my post that it did lessen. I am hoping it will too. I am trying this lotion it is Cocoa Butter with Vitamin E and it is supposed to even skin tones, but I have yet to see a change. One could only hope with more weight loss it will completely go away >__

aw man, i also have it under armpits. very embarrassing.
