Sun screen does not show improvement, it will only save you from further sun tan. It is pigmentation, you will need to de tan the area. You may use yogurt to do so. Apply and let dry for 15 minutes everyday. Continue using sunscreen. Try to cover the pigmented area outdoors. Take vitamin c rich foods. It will take some time to improve the condition. Go for laser treatment for faster results.
