Hello
Welcome and thanks for your question
I would be pleased to help you with your Question

If the child is 4 years old , it is too early to start any lightening creams for safety purpose.
The best thing that you can do for the skin now is to protect the skin excessive sun exposure .
You should use a good sunscreen like Sebamed or Neutrogena or Cetaphil sunscreen .
Avoid scrubbing the skin or using any frictional methods to reduce the pigment.

Thanks and Take care
