Dermatologist 's  Response
hi, welcome to HCM,
kojic acid cream is to be used in maintenance after treatment of tanning.
for treatment Hydroquinone 4% cream should be applied twice daily.
sunscreen with SPF 30 or more should be applied at every 2 hrly in first half of the day.
wash your face with glycolic acid 2% containing face wash.
this will take 6-8 week for good result.
thanks
