Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain dark patches that developed post pregnancy can be Melasma that are hyperpigmented patches that can appear over face and neck and hormonal changes that occurs after pregnancy seems to be a common trigger for it..
I would suggest you to start applying Hydroquinone containing creams..
You can also apply retinoids like Adapelene gel..
Application of Kojic acid , glycolic acid and arbutin containing creams are also helpful..
Apply Vitamin E oil or gel at night..
You should limit sun exposure..
You can also go for microdermabrasion, dermabrasion and chemical peels for faster resolution..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
