Brief Answer:
It is a very difficult question in several respects

Detailed Answer:
First, dermatologic conditions are difficult to diagnose and treat without directly observing them. Second, skin pigmentation like bad tatoos are deep into the skin and will not go away by themselves. Third, facial skin is the most sensitive and most visible.
I see several previous attempts at answering. Some are helpful for preventing further skin pigmentation problems (sunscreen, good skin care, and a good diet) and others are recommending abrasion methods. Both are built on the correct assumption that skin turns over and not doing further damage will allow healthier skin to prevail over much time. And the skin will become more uniform and some fading will occur over years.
Alternatively, there are methods to directly change skin pigmentation chemically.

here are many.

There are treatments based on chemicals or lasers that chemically change the pigments. They can also affect normal pigments and there can be variable results on it.
