Hi. Greetings.This could be melasma. The following would help you :
1. Daily use of sunscreen in day time of SPF 30 applied half hour before sun exposure
2. Daily bed time use of combination skin lightening cream for 4 to 6 weeks ONLY - STRICTLY UNDER PRESCRIPTION ADN GUIDANCE OF THE DERMATOLOGIST.
3. Peeling agents prescribed by dermatologist for reducing tan and improving your natural skin colour and reducing PIGMENTED spots.
4. 100% ELIMINATION OF MELASMA MAY NOT OCCUR, however, significant improvement may be achieved.
5. Kindly read my blog on daily skin care on Practo health feed.
6. Daily fitness work out and loads of fruits and veggies will help loads in improving your skin.
Hope this helps.
