A member asked:
Will facial scars darken in south of france(warmm) if i apply total sunblock. scars are already flat and red. thanks verg much?

It is possible : Healing scars always have the chance of darkening in direct sunlight. If you are going to be out in it do your best to wear sunscreen and a wide brim hat that covers your face to mitigate any darkening. It still may occur however.
