Skin pigmentation: The burned skin area will heal completely, but it's possible the skin coloration changes will remain. This is more likely to happen if the healing skin was exposed to sun while healing. After 6 months, if the color is still darker than surrounding skin, it's possible to use a skin lightener (based on hydroquinone) to lighten the area.
