Hi.
As per your case history of skin tanning, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with spf more than 30.
2. Apply a kojic acid cream like kojivit twice daily on affected skin.
3. Take a vitamin b12 supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are topical steroid, chemical peeling done by dermatologist.

Thanks.
