Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
Please use a broad spectrum sunscreen and reapply every 3 hours.
Wear a hat when outdoors.
You mentioned that you have already used 2 different lightening creams. You could try a tretinoin containing cream as it is better for thicker skin.
You could also try chemical peels like Glycolic peels and retinol peels.
Hope this helped.
Take care.
