I advise you to consult a dermatologist online or in person, share clear pictures, and get a personalized treatment plan. Only after proper evaluation can the right medicines (creams/tablets) be prescribed

Glyco 12 is a higher concentration of glycolic acid, so make sure it does not indicate the skin
Moisturiser and sunscreen use are equally important while dealing with pigmentation concerns
Next Steps
Can switch to glyco 12 but start with alternate days, and do use other actives along with the same

You can use glyco 12 having higher concentration than glyco 6 with more precautions as it can cause little burning or irritation over face with strict photoprotection
