As soon as you stop using it, slowly your pigmentation problem will be back. You can apply aloe vera juice/gel from its leaf (fresh, not from readymade gels available in market) on your face. Remove skin of an aloe vera leaf. Take /scoop out gel. Apply this gel to your face skin. Wash with plain water after an hour. Stop using soap on face. Instead take a spoon of milk, add a pinch of turmeric (haldi). Mix n apply on face with the help of cotton. Leave for a few minutes then wash off. Apply moisturizer like coconut oil. Simple honey mask--before applying this mask, rinse your face with warm water to open up pores. Then apply honey and leave it on the skin for 30 minutes. Rinse the honey off with warm water; then rinse again with cold water to close the pores. Use some sunblock with spf (at least 50) every time you go out in sun. Apply it 30 mins before going out use umbrella when going in sun. Wear full sleeves clothsdrink plenty of fluids. Don?t be stressed. For more details consult online.

Good afternoon. Based on the information you have provided, and the lack of photographs to corroborate, you could have any of the various causes of facial hyperpigmentation - such as melasma, freckles, lentigenes, pigmented contact dermatitis, etc. Vitamin c helps with its antioxidant action and reduction of pigmentation. Whether it helps and how much depends on the condition being treated. For how long? - it depends entirely on the condition being treated but if for some reason you are hesitant to continue, alternate options can always be provided.
