What is the final scar color for someone with tanned skin? (Photo)

Thank you for your question regarding the final color of a scar.

A scar can vary from person to person, but also vary on the same person depending on the location on the body.

Scars have a pretty typical healing process where they start out red, fade to pink, and finally fade to a pale skin color/white.

I recommend an in person consultation with two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons for a complete evaluation.

Best wishes!

Scar coloring can be influenced by your genetics. Typically after scars have fully matured they should be within a few shades of your natural skin tone. I invite you to peruse the photo gallery on my website to help you.
