What is the most effective treatment for brown spots on legs?

labwstone
I have had 5 -6 IPL treatment on my legs. The machine was turned up high enough for me to receive some burns. I also had a technician try Bbl, pico, a machine that removes tattoos. She tried several spots and nothing happened on my legs. I also use hydroquinone which helps a little. The BBL/IPL worked great in one treatment on my arms and chest. Surely in this day and time there is something that can be used for these spots on the legs.
