Hi,
I am attaching the pictures. I have used a homeopathic medicine earlier but I kind of got caught up in work so didn't had the time to visit the doctor again. I used it for like a month which is obviously not a good duration of time to observe the effects.
I used SBL berberis aquifolium gel suggested by the doctor. Please suggest.

Brief Answer:
Kojic acid cream, sunscreen and moisturising cream
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have reviewed the attached photographs.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to use a kojic acid cream on the dark areas of the face twice daily and take antioxidant capsule like capsule antoxid HC or Capsule Exerge once daily at bedtime.
Besides this use a broad spectrum sunscreen on the entire face during the day time and a good moisturising cream at night.
These measures will improve your skin tone and dullness.
Also avoid direct sunlight, take proper sleep of 7-8 hours, increase the intake of water, take plenty of fruits and vegetables, avoid stress and include nuts in your diet.
