Hi Dear ,

Understanding your concern. As per your query your skin has hyperpigmentation and acne scars on face which is due to excessive absorption of UV rays of sun.

I would suggest you to use medicated sunscreen such as Tancare rich in SPF 30. Use lightening agent like kojic acid with vitamin C twice a day. Apply mashed potatoes on these pigments. Apply cotton dipped in tea tree oil to lighten the pigments. You can visit dermatologist once and can go for chemical peeling or micro abrasion if your symptoms not resolving. Take supplements rich in vitamin C.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
