Hi.
As per your case history you are having post inflammatory hypo pigmented spots.
My treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with spf more than 30.
2. Apply a tacrolimus 0.03 %ointment once at night on spots.
3. Take an antioxidant like Cap.Antoxid-hc once daily for 3 months.

It will take around 3 - 4 months for complete recovery.

Thanks.
