I met with a road rash about a month ago... my knees scar got pink... in how many days it will disappear complete?

It won't: You will probably have a scar for the rest of your life. I'm glad it came from an adventure, perhaps even a time you were enjoying, and that you did not sustain a more serious injury. There is no such thing as a perfect body, and scars give us character, letting others know we have lived.
