Start applying Suncros Soft SPF 50- 20 mins before stepping out in daytime
Apply even when indoors
Wash the affected area with AHA GLOW wash four times a week
Other days use Cetaphil cleansing lotion followed by application of Physiogel lotion in daytime before sunscreen application
At night apply DEMELAN cream for three months on affected areas.
Few sessions of chemical peels along with Q switch laser will help for better and faster long lasting pigmentation reduction
Oral glutathione therapy also is helping depending upon the stage of pigmentation
Please review with me for further suggestions
Thanks
