Black eye is not fully fading

Over three months ago I had two black eyes due to a broken nose. The main swelling disappeared after a couple of weeks but dark discolouration from the injury still remains.

I've been to the doctor and they've said I should wait. However, it's been a long time and I still don't see any improvement. I've applied Arnica cream but that's hasn't helped.

Does anyone have any suggestions on why it's still discoloured and what I could do to get my skin colour back to normal?
