Yes it is penile melanosis. First thing you have to understand is With any procedure you can't get normal looking skin. With non surgical procedures like lasers and creams total clearance may not be achieved. With surgical management, skin grafting should be done. In both cases you won't have normal looking skin.
Next Steps
consult a dermatologist for non surgical management or a plastic surgeon for surgical management directly.
