My freckles and blemishes have darkened after outdoor activities during my summer vacation. Please recommend a toning treatment.

After spending some time outdoors in strong sunlight during my summer vacation last week, I can see that the faint freckles and blemishes around both my cheekbones have noticeably darkened and widened. I tried my best to apply sunscreen, but the UV rays were so intense that it seems the pigmentation flared up significantly. When I go without makeup, my face looks generally patchy and dull, so I feel like I can't leave it like this any longer. I'm planning to book an appointment at Maypure right away! Would it be a good idea to try Pico Toning or a whitening toning laser treatment, which are known to finely break down pigment particles with minimal irritation? I would be very grateful if those with experience could let me know how many consecutive sessions are typically required to restore a clear and radiant bare-faced tone, and how long the downtime is!
