Brief Answer:
Use Kojic acid

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up and photographs.
The spots on your face are superficial pigmentation probably due to acne.
you can use a mild skin lightening cream like kojic acid daily in night and a sunscreen with spf 30 or above in morning.
Also use an exfoliating face wash like salicylic acid face wash twice daily to keep your face dry.
This should help you.
Let me know if you have any doubts.
Thank you.
