Hello there! As you said you have long exposure to sun, you must apply a good sunscreen with SPF 25+ every 2 hours when in sun and every 3 hours also when indoors. This will prevent further damage to the skin. To improve your tanned skin you can visit a dermatologist/cosmetologist who will prescribe you some creams if need be. Hope this helps!
