We can tell rightaway that it is melasma (dark pigmentation) mainly due to exposure to sunlight but we need to confirm with you your age and sex,With the history we can tell that you should start using sunsccreen lotion when you go out and avoid direct exposure to sunlight.Although there are are ointments like mometosone furoate for topical application ,I strongly advice you to show to a general physician before taking any medication.Hope this is useful.
