Women experience a lot of pigmentation because of pregnancy. It's because of the change in hormones. Use a decent sunblock on face and neck. Once you've had your baby this will reduce.
As for hair removal. Electrolysis is more permanent. It's painful but permanent. Whereas laser is permanent hair reduction. It reduces hair growth but does not permanently remove entire hair.
You should see your trusted aesthetic dermatologist for further workup and details.

The darkening is related to ypur pregnancy and weight gain.it is difficult but you should restrict the weight increase as it may lead to many other problems later.for now you can moisturize your skin better. The hair on your chin can be removed both by laser and electrolysis.laser requires fewer sittings and is quicker but more e pensive than electrolysis.
