Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
Along with demelan cream, use a broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 and above every 3-4 hours to prevent patches from recurring. Cover yourself with a scarf or hold an umbrella when outdoors. You could also use vitamin C containing serum at bedtime for maintainance.
Hope this helps you.
Take care.
