Bleaching Cream On Face. Face Gets Darker. Why Is This Happening?

Hi doc, I've been using bleaching cream on my face due to dark sport from pimples. I've been using it for a good couple of years now, not knowing the effect it would have over my skin, now I ant to stop using it, but every time I tried, my face gets very dark much darker than my body. Do you have any advice on this.

Thanks
