None. There is nothing you can apply externally that will do that.

Doh.
Misread something.

When it comes to restoring pigmentation, it's best to consult with a dermatologist who can recommend the right treatment for your specific needs.

However, some common compounds found in creams and ointments for pigmentation issues include hydroquinone, kojic acid, retinoids, and vitamin C. These ingredients can help lighten dark spots and even out skin tone over time.

I've personally had a great experience with Skin whitening laser treatments, which helped improve my skin tone. However, it's essential to discuss your options with a professional to find the best solution for you.

But surely these all lighten the skin , by breaking down melanins or  inhibiting their synthesis. That’s the opposite of what the OP is asking about.

How was pigmentation lost? Spending a long time underground will do it, but you need sunshine, not a cream to restore colour.

If it's trough scarring, external application of substances won't help, as the melanocytes have been destroyed. Laser resurfacing can help lure some back. 

Silver nitrate ointment darkens the skin, but it's not recommended over long periods.
