You have to understand the process of hyperpigmentation. UVA exposer induce melonocytes (the color producing cells) to produce more pigments. Thereby produce hyperpigmentation. You have to use a good sunscreen with spf appropriate to your skin type to prevent futher this hyperpigmentation. Kojic acid inhibit melanocyte to produce pigmentation but it is temporary and melanocytes got back their function after a few weeks after stoppage.
