Burn Scars

The main character in my latest book was horribly burned on over half of their face and body as a child [they accidentally set their house on fire with elemental powers], and refused to heal them with magic. I am wondering [in general, mind] how the scars could be described.


[I don't want any pictures posted of actual scars, please.]

Burn scars differ from regular scars only by being a little fuzzier because of the sizzling and popping hope that helps.
 
^Oh, really? Wow, I never knew that. Thanks.

^^It's sort of both white with scar tissue and dark with discolouring, depending on where you are looking. .

My idiot boyfriend has a brand so when I saw your post about burn scars I looked at that and asked him since his dad was a fire investigator.
