Hello,
I would recommend you to apply hydroquinone 2 percent cream on the affected area at bedtime along with the application of sunscreen on the entire face during the day time for 4-5 weeks. This should resolve it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
