hi Deepika
your skin seems to be prone to darkening. this condition is called post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. i suggest you use a kojic acis containing cream over the dark spots twice daily and a broad spectrum sunscreen over your face half an hour before going out into the sun. and please avoid garlic paste. thank you.
