  1. Learn about “mask of pregnancy” or Chloasma or Melasma. Couple of links below to get you started.

Melasma (Chloasma) - Symptoms & Information - Patient Education Center
Skin darkening during pregnancy | BabyCenter

  1. See a dermatologist.

Re: postpartum patches on face

Dear, i can suggest you a cream Trisone (hydroquinone 4%) use it twice a day but apply sunblock 100 SPF right after you jump out of bed in the morning, and re apply after 3,4 hours even if you are not directly exposed to sun. InshaAllah the spots will fade and then vanish. Tried and tested by me after my pregnancy i too had these terrible marks on both cheeks. Else you can go for "ndyag" that will give 100% results in few sittings. If you're interested msg me i will tell you a doctor if you are in Karachi he is the pioneer of NdYag.
