Hello,
I would recommend you to apply a hydroquinone based cream on the affected areas once daily at bedtime for 3 weeks along with the frequent and regular application of sunscreen on the entire face during the day time.
This should be used under the supervision of the doctor. You can also go for chemical peels or laser toning for faster results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
