What causes browns spots and uneven pigments on the face?
There are many kinds of brown spots; however the most common are caused by an interaction of sunlight and estrogen. This is a problem in women who are using the oral contraceptive which increases hormone levels, and is also seen during and shortly after pregnancy for the same reason. Discolorations can also be the result of inflammation caused by acne, harsh chemicals, or trauma.

I also found this online with some homemade remedies:

Hello! This is a very common thing that happens during pregnancy. The brown patches can sometimes appear without being pregnant. They are called melasma then, but if they appear during pregnancy they are called chloasma or differently "the mask of pregnancy".

This disorder happens due to hormonal change during pregnancy and represents only on of the many skin changes women may experience during and after pregnancy. Chloasma usually goes away on its own a few months after delivery. You should cover your face in the sun and wear sunblocks.
Besides pregnancy, these spots can be cause by birth control pills.

They are hyperpigmentation spots that are caused by sun or otherwise known as sunspots. There are hundreds of different cosmetic items that say they can bleach them but depending on the stage that the spots are in it may be extemely hard. Just make sure that you use an spf of at least 40 YEAR round. Not only in the summer but somtimes the wind in winter causes more damage. You can research many types of brands that say bleach them but i know that the only way to get rid of them is lazering them off.

Yeah, you can bleach them. It takes a lot of patience though, to put that cream on your dark spots. It's easy though. Get Palmers Even tone.
