Hi
Thanks for your query
You seem to have developed skin pigmentation due to
tanning. I would like to tell you that this does not have any relation to
blood donation.
Topical medications can definitely be of help to you in reducing the pigmentation to some extent.
I would advice that you should use a lightening agent like kojic acid and vitamin c combination over the affected areas. This is a simple, harmless lightening agent which can be used for as long the blackish pigmentation is there.
Also ,try not to touch the area too much.

Use proper sunscreen (spf>26) before going out in the sun so that the lesion doesn't darken any further
Take a diet rich in vitamin C and antioxidants like Citrus fruits and lots of salads
If after all the above measures, the pigmentation tend to persist, then i would advise that you should see a
dermatologist as there are various other measures for the treatment of pigmented skin like the use of
chemical peels,
dermabrasion etc which a dermatologist can decide according to the type of scars..
Hope it helps
Wishing you speedy recovery
