Hi there

You have used the right treatment so far. Continue to apply the silver sulfadiazine ointment until the skin has healed and the pain disappears leaving a residual pain free scar. You can then apply bio oil or any tissue oil with vitamin E. If the scar is hyperpigmented, try 0,1% hydrocortisone ointment to the affected area. Do not apply oil or the steroid based ointment during the day as it will harm your skin.

Hope this helps.
