I was lightly touched by an exhaust pipe while I was riding a motorcycle. What can I do to make the scar lighten up? (photo)

This happened about ten months ago. I did not get proper care for the burn and it has now left a scar.The scar has two parts. the outside healed pretty well with the skin being slightly discolored. However where there was blistering which is directly in the middle is still very dark. It has healed but I would like to know how to help the discoloration.
