A dermatologist-recommended cream containing hydroquinone (2 to 4 percent), azelaic acid, or a combination of retinoids and sunscreen may be more successful than standard over-the-counter creams for persistent dark spots. To avoid worsening pigmentation, always combine therapy with daily broad-spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen. Consult a physician before beginning stronger medications.
