Dark Patches On Skin. Took Treatment From Dermatologist. Not Cured. Now?

Hi, I have pigmentation problem, I have dark patches on my forehead and around my lips . Also underarms and around neck. I am visiting a famous Dermatologist, I had 3 sittings of peeling. But not much useful. Also My docter has suggested me 3 creams, each costing Rs.2000+ and its increasing pimples and also making my face very very dry. Please help.
