Will Cosmelan peel remove my hyperpigmentation? I am 64, Filipino. (photo)

Modest592943
I am 64, Filipino. I have this brown spot on my left cheek, not too big but been bothering me for years. I used Musely for about 6 months two years ago but did not work for me. I used to have chemical peels at doctors' offices /did not have problem with it. I had microneedling, did not help with the brown spots. Recently, we moved to Houston and my skin is so dry. Not sure if it is the air or me just changing. I am using vitamin c, retinol, niacinamide, all from The Ordinary. Thanks.
