Brief Answer:
Peels

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
Peels are the best solution for pigmentation of back.
I treat such cases with glycolic acid 50 % peel to be applied once in 15 days.
You can get it done by a dermatologist.
These peels are also available on online stores.
You can buy one and start using at home.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
