I suffered fire burns on both leg for five months ago and my skin looks whitish. (hypopigmentation). what can i do to improve my condition. thank you?

Depigmentation: Unfortunately loss of pigmentation in scar tissue for the most part is permanent. For evaluation and advice I recommend consultation with a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon. Another suggestion is to see a skilled cosmetitian or beautician for makeup advice.
