                                    Brief Answer:
Kojic acid
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
You can use a skin lightening cream like kojic acid in night and continue with sunscreen in day.
Tea tree oil based face wash is effective for oily skin.
You can try this.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
This will help me in giving a closer diagnosis and better way of management.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
