Hi.
As per your case history of macular amyloidosis, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid friction at affected region as it may worsen the condition.
2. It is a chronic disease and take months for appreciable results.
3. As you have already used multiple peeling creams, you need other treatment options like hydroquinone 4%cream, kojic acid cream, mild topical steroid cream like fluticasone. All these are started only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
