Hello, welcome to Chat Doctor. I understand that you are having pigmentation on your cheekbones. This is medically termed as Plasma. You must and should use a broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 and above every 3-4 hours even on cloudy days and even indoors. Use a cream containing 2% Comic acid and vitamin C at bedtime on the patches. You would benefit from getting glycolic acid based peels done by a dermatologist. Do not scrub the area. Eat a healthy diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. Hope this helps you. Take care.
