This particular issue appears to have begun as a fungal problem initially we call Pityriasis Versicolor.
Pigmentation issues are a common problem with youngsters nowadays especially given the amount of outdoors activities involved.
Genetics, Environmental factors, Hormonal factors and even Stress play a big role in the pathogenesis of pigmentation issues.
A more detailed history and description plus medical examination and personal history will be needed to create a clear treatment plan for you to achieve a spotless healthy skin.
In your case, KOH smear will be needed to establish a fungal aeitology and treat it first.
Avoid ☀️ and use a 🧢 ☔ in addition to good quality sunscreen that suits your skin type.
We also make skin lotions at an in-house pharmacy adjacent to a clinic I used to consult at earlier and this is tailor made for individuals including for fungal issues.
Welcome to consult ONLINE or in-person should you hail from Bengaluru or its easily accessible for you.
Godspeed 🙏
