Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

You are having hypermelanotic macules and patches on face.

They may be either postinflammatory hypermelanosis or freckles.

I would not advise for laser treatment.

The color may gradually fade after simple measures.

Take orally glutathion ,vitamin C and nicotinic acid.

Rub kojic acid and vitamin C containing cream.

Cleanse the face with kojic acid and glycolic acid containing face wash.

Avoid sun exposure.

Be calm, avoid anxiety and tension.

Improve diet.

I think, you will get good result.

However , you consult dermatologist.

I hope, you got my answer.

Thanks.
