Can I Apply 4% Hydroquinone on Upper Bleph Scars One Week Post Op? (photo)

starlight2011
I had an upper bleph on 3/28/13 and I'm happy so far with the results but since I have dark skin, I am worried about dark scars. Can I apply hydroquinone 4% on upper eyelids one week post op? If not, how soon can I do something about any possible hyperpigmentation? Also, can I use hydroquinone for bruising? Thank you all in advance.
