Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor Discoloration of face is rather a broad term. It can include any hyperpigmented problems. The cause for your pigmentation has to be ascertained. A consultation with a dermatologist practicing cosmetology will help in diagnosis. Sunlight induced photo-pigmentation, freckles and UV spots, Plasma, Seborrhea Melanesia, Addison pigmentation, Vitamin B12 deficiency, acanthuses Nigerians etc. are all causes of pigmentation and needs to be ruled out. Please continue using sunscreen and re apply every 3-4 hours during the day. Your diet also seems to be fine. Chemical peels and microdermabrasion will help if you take many sittings provided you rule out internal causes of pigmentation. Hope this helpedTake care
