I'm pretty sure it'll remain lighter.

this realy depends on your skin colour to start with and how bad the scar is, most cases you may be able to get your skin to the same colour, however the scar tissue itself will not tan, mainly as its composed of platelets and such which do not have any colour cells in them. give it a try but dont expect a good result.

The scar will rarely tan very easily I'm afraid. Scar tissue usually stays a lighter pinky colour, you could try using some sort of foundation cream.

i think the scar would remain the same color or if it not that bad of a scar it might change color with the rest of the skin or you can just p[aint it the same color of your skin after the tan
