Hello,
Thanks for writing in.

Blemishes can be very effectively treated.

Use a gel containing glycolic acid and kojic acid, arbutin once daily at night (rejuglow gel).

In the morning use hydroquinone 4% cream followed by spf 16 sunscreen application.

Use this regime for 6 weeks.

Keep me posted about the progress.

I will be available for any further questions you have
Thanks

hydroquinone 4% is a prescription drug and not available OTC. I am sorry, but I am not allowed to suggest a brand name for the same, in this forum.

Sunscreen 26 spf, you may use Shadowz or Suncros.

Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
