Hello,

Thanks for writing here.

It seems you are having tanned skin.

Start applying a sunscreen at day time.

Drink plenty water and eat fresh fruits.

At night you can apply any depigmentary cream like melaglow.

You can also apply mild topical steroid like hydrocortisone over affected area for 1 to 2 weeks.

Hope this will help you.Take care.
