It will regress spontaneously you should rather investigate the causes of such Sun sensitivity.

have her lie flat with her feet raised up on pillows above her head and above her heart. Watch your salt intake and drink a lot of water. I know that seems weird but the more water you ingest the more you will urinate and flush the fluid out of your system. Hope this helps!
