Options for discoloured scars?

Hreed667
I have few bad surgical scars on my face. They have been successfully treated so that they are even with the skin - but not with the colour! Some scars are hypo- and some hyperepigmented. I would love to hear about some options of treating skin discolouration. Whiter scars can be tattooed I believe, but are there any home remedies to improve the colour and make it match into surrounding skin?
