Answer: Options depend upon nature of scar
Hello,
Depending upon the natureof your scar, staged excision, tissue expansion or flap repair might be helpful. The best option will be a matter of opinion based upon your exam and the experience of your surgeon.

Answer: Burn scar
You did not state how old the scar is? If it is new, you will have to let it mature if it was not full thickness. If it healed quickly and only partial thickness, it may settle down over time and the color may not be that "off." Hard to say withotu an exam.
