Use depigmenting cream and sunscreen

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
In such cases I usually recommend my patients to apply depigmenting cream containing kojic acid on the affected areas twice daily.
Various brands containing kojic acid are available like kojiglo cream or kojivit cream.
Also use a broad spectrum sunscreen on the entire face and ears during the day time.
