Brief Answer:
Use aloevera cream
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up.
You can use aloevera cream.
Depigmenting creams can be used but there are chances of allergic reaction hence better to avoid them.
Just apply aloevera cream and wait for results.
It might take 3 to 4 months for total recovery.

Brief Answer:
Use steroid cream first
Detailed Answer:
Hello
If you still have red patches then inflammation is still there.
As I suggested earlier first you need to apply a mild steroid cream like mometasone.
This will help in taking care of redness.
Once the redness is gone you can use aloevera or coconut oil.
