Sun avoidance: I am sorry to hear about your facial spots.I don't believe any over the counter cream would treat your brown spots.I first advise you stay away from the sun and use a good sunscreen as a preventive measure.  My mother had this issue and she just started to avoid direct sun light and use a sunscreen with good results.  I would advise you speak to the dermatologist who did the zap treatment for help

Accepted Answer

Hard to assess: Skin issues are hard to assess without seeing them. That said, factors like where they are located, how long they have been there, your own idea of a possible cause, can help narrow the potential. With so little information in the post you will need to have someone see it to assess the problem.
