Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
Yes there are gels which will help to lighten dark marks. Gels containing kojic acid will be a good option. Kojivit gel, Kojiglo gel or cosglo gel are some examples. This has to be applied twice a day over dark spots.
Avoid touching the spots and pimples. Avoid excessive sunlight exposure as sunlight will make the dark spots darker. A gel based sunscreen in the mornings will help prevent sunlight induced darkening. Cosmetic services like chemical peel and meso therapy also will help to lighten the marks. You may consult a dermatologist practicing cosmetology for the same.
Hope this helped
Take care
