Hello sir. If the doctor has said to wait and see, then definitely you have to do that. Anyhow the scar will take somewhere between 6 months to 2 years to completely mature. In the mean time its better if you apply a sunscreen of higher SPF, and cover your face by a cap when going out in sun. Its better you observe for another couple of months and then consult the doctor if the colour persists.
