How can you get of a small spot on your skin if your skin came in direct contact with fire? the spot is old and maybe lighter by now but still there.

Burn marks: There is a little scarring that happens after injury to the skin. It may heal darker or lighter than the surrounding tissue. It will improve with time but can persist for years. Cosmetics may be the best solution if it bothers you.
