Ginkgo biloba extract may help your spots. It has been shown to have antioxidant and immunomodulatory properties.

In a double-blind placebo-controlled trial, patients were given G. biloba extract 40 mg three times daily.

According to the study, a statistically significant cessation of active progression of depigmentation was noted in patients treated with G. biloba and it seems to be a simple, safe and fairly effective therapy for arresting the progression of the disease (1).

This new study is also very important to review, it shows how the accumulation of the damaging effects of hydrogen peroxide in the skin can be protected by 'Bilobalide' found in gingko biloba:
