Hi i think the small pimple on the back of the neck can be psoriatic patch.hence when exposed to sunlight due to ultraviolet rays it got subsided and a scar appeared in its place.apply regular moisturiser to prevent recurrences.scar can be removed by application of flutivate ointment over the lesion
