Hydroquinone itself causes skin pigmentation if used over the counter for prolonged time. That's why it is wise to consult dermatologist before you apply anything on skin. Now that the damage is done. Give a break. U can use good sunscreen and moisturizer alone for 1 month. Then gradually add safe depigmenting creams.
