Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query red patch and brown spots on face is hyper pigmentation (melasma) of skin. it could be due to chemical reaction and sun burn. I would suggest you to :
-Avoid oily and fried food.
-Hydroquinone cream will also very effective in decreasing pigment .
-Protect your skin from sun exposure and use sunscreen with SPF 50.
-Apply tertenoin gel or cream which will help to remove dead skin.
-You can also apply butter milk with cotton and wash it with water twice a day .
-Drink plenty of water and eat fresh green leafy vegetable.
If condition persists for more then few weeks then consult dermatologist. Doctor may suggest for chemical peeling .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get well Soon.
