Tough to say: Everyone heals a little differently. If it becomes a true issue and problem to you, see a Dermatologist for an evaluation and treatment and possibly some creams that may promote healing and skin coloration to return to normal, etc. Best wishes.

Give it time: It sounds like you definitely have some skin remodeling and fibrosis. Some scars take months to years to go away. Others stay for life.
