Detailed Answer:
Hello My Dear

Welcome back.
I have reviewed the pics and I am confident that by adopting following measures, anyone in a situation like this , is going to derive superior response.

1 Avoid sun exposure.
An alternative is to use a any sunscreen of SPF at least 35, daily at 1030 hrs and repeated at 1300 hrs everyday, including rainy/cloudy days. Use is meant for all exposed areas.

2 Tab Antoxid HC once daily for 4-6 weeks.

3 Avoid face packs or other preparations with a risk of causing irritation on the face.

4 Frequent face washing with plain water.

I hope these measures will prove very useful in the long run as well

Best wishes.

Brief Answer:
These additional measures are more helpful

Detailed Answer:
Hello My Dear

I have read and analyzed your situation.

I think the outlines that I have given above will work best for you. Fora quicker response, Kojic cream applied twice daily, one to two hours morning and two to three hours evenings will offer additional benefits.

Using other creams is likely to thin out your skin with side effects later on.

I would suggest you to be on the safer side.

Best wishes
