How To Cure Discoloration Of The Skin On The Scar?

On 17 aug 2013, i got a wound on my face due to a machine blast in industry. Which results in Penetration of some glass pieces of the cabin on my face near right eye. I got some stitches there. Now there is a long scar about 50 mm. However the stitches were too fine so there is no marks of stitches but the scar of skin joint is still there... Its colour did not matches with skin. So wt cream or oil should i use over it to make it like appearance of skin. Would mederma be beneficial? Pls give some suggestions.
