There are various treatment for pigmentation. From creams containing hydroquinone to milder ones of Kojic acid, niacinamide, arbutin. There is options of glutathione injections to oral tablets with vitamin C, also laser toning also gives good results. You can start with Melaglow twice a day. It is very important ot use sunscreen three times a day during these treatment as the skin becomes very sensitive.

Hello, You can start initially on milder depigmentation creams which contain kojic acid, arbutin, niacinamide like Melaglow at night and use sunscreen (SPF 35 and above) three times a day. Also tretinoin 0.025% for long term is a very good antiageing cream. Consult adermatologist.
