hi skin pigmentation on cheek bones is called melasma.it can be due to hormonal imbalance,cosmetics,ultraviolet rays etc.in pregancy and in menopause it is mainly hormonal imbalance.it can be treated with tubes u used but it should be used for longer time.instead use ban a tan which are steriod free for spots in the night and a sunscreen in the morning can cure it.if no response use chemical peels like azalic acid and mandelic acid.if no response use pigmented lasers
