Intense Scabbing After Waxing, Skin Peeled Off, Scabbed Areas Have Lighter Color. How To Restore Original Color?

I waxed same area twice. After dat i got intense scabbing. The scabbing is now gone and the skin has peeled of on its own. But the scabbed areas now have a lighter color than its surrounding. How to get back my original pigmentation in that region? I have been using Momisoft-F cream on doctors advice but it doesn't seem to work.
