In some people benzoyl peroxide may cause pigmentation. Stop using it. Apply nilac gel for acne daily morning over pimple, use himalaya face wash, aziderm or kojic cream over hyperpigmentation. Daily night. Apply sunscreen .pigmentation takes sum time to go but if you got scars then some laser or peeling ,subcision kind of procedures to b done because scars doesn’t go off with creams.
