My maltese puppy has patches of brown color on his pink skin. His vet says that it is normal. Should I worry and what can be done for his skin to turn to pink again.

This is likely completely normal. Dogs can have patches of brown skin on their pink skin, and the skin won't turn pink again. You can't do anything for it to turn pink, and it's really nothing about which to worry. I hope this helps.
