Brief Answer:
Triple combination cream and sunscreen

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I would recommend you to apply a triple combination cream containing hydroquinone, mometasone and tretinoin on the freckles at night along with application of a broad spectrum sunscreen on the entire face during the day time.

Triple combination cream is a prescription drug and should be taken under the supervision of the doctor.

Also, stay away from direct sun exposure, use scarf, umbrella and sunglasses whenever out in the sun as sun exposure will increase the number and size of freckles.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
