Sun spot treatment cream

I’ve got a couple of sun spots on my face and ideally would like to get rid. I see that you can buy creams that treat them, but I don’t trust the website reviews. Can anyone recommend one that worked? Thanks

There have been other recent threads on it. Niacinimide should work but isn't instant.
Prevent them by using sunscreen.

Do you use sunscreen regularly? That's non negotiable. I started my morning with searching the same topic. I have received beauty of joseon glow deep serum which has alpha arbutin in it. Also looking at eucerin radiant tone serum which has thiamidol in it. Hopefully others would reply more helpfully but I am starting with these two. I am also using tinted sunscreen as they are better at preventing hyperpigmentation.

If you do an Advanced search on "hyperpigmentation" you'll get a few threads but here's one that might be useful:

Thanks all - I will have a look at those products and searches. I’m mid 40’s and have been pretty good with using sunscreen for a couple f decades. Luckily I have few wrinkles but I do have these two sun spots on my cheekbones which are annoying.

I’m very uninitiated 😆 I’ve used the same face wash, toner and moisturiser for a very long time

Nothing wrong with that. I despair at what all the different unctions recommended on here do to the skin.
