See your doctor: Discuss this with your doctor - sometimes a potent steroid or Hydroxyurea can be used to "bleach" the skin.

A few options: If this is due to post inflammatory pigmentation, avoid sun exposure with a high SPF sunblock, use anti-inflammatory topical and systemic agents. Topical steroids and Retin-A may also be beneficial. Silicone sheeting or gel may also be useful.
