hi
if you are born light skinned do not worry your colour will automatically return back after some time
please try to avoid too much exposure to the sun, & cold also
whenever you are out in the sun you can go for application of sun protecting creams, like SPF: 30 , 50.
VITAMIN C & E oral medications for 2-3 weeks will lighten the skin colour.application of creams containing kojic acids also helps.
do not take more stress on this,keep yourself hydrated properly.
you can consult the dematologist for specific treatment.
all the best
take care
