Brief Answer:
Looks like post inflammatory depigmentation
Detailed Answer:
I have reviewed the attached photograph and it looks like post inflammatory depigmentation.
It will take time to resolve.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply topical tacrolimus 0.1 percent ointment on the affected area at night and mometasone cream on the mark during the day time.
These are prescription drugs and should be used under the prescription of the doctor.
