General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Thank yo ufor asking at HCM,
I carefully read your question and understand your concern.
If you had a wound in the face the first thing is to make sure it does not get infected.Infection would make the mark be bigger so if there is an redness or swelling locally you will need to see a doctor to take antibiotics to help with infection. Do not remove the crusts unless they go loose themselves. The next thing to keep in mind is that the sun can tan the mark and make it more visible so make sure before leaving the house and a few times a day if you live in sunshiny area to use a local sunscreen with a factor of 30 or above for the first months. Make sure you keep your skin hydrated, it will help be healthy.
I hope with answers to your question and is helpful to you.
