WILL THIS TURN INTO HYPOPIGMENTED SCAR?

I burned my legs with coffee spilled in my pants ang pressed into my skin. I never got it checked because of financial reasons. The worst area wasn't bigger than my palm. I got blisters, when It healed, the parts where I didn't got blisters turn browner than my normal skin, and the part that blistered turned lighter than my normal skin. I wasn't sure if it's a 2nd or 3rd degree. 3rd degree burns usually scar white. But by the look of it, I think it's a 2nd degree. It's been 3 months since this happened. It healed but left a scar. I'm afraid it will turn into a white scar which I can do nothing about. Do you have any advices? Or experiences you can share? It would be lovely to hear! Thank you.

Wow that must've really hurt! I would use some silicone scar cream ( loads on Amazon) every day. It's healed well considering.

I would suggest talking to your local pharmacist, they have a wealth of often unappreciated knowlege.
