  1. Use a sunscreen with an SPF (sun protection factor) of no less than 8. Rub it thoroughly into your arm .

  2. Can you wear a longer sleeve? Maybe you can wrap them up with a bandange so they're not so visible.  

  3. Scars, right? It's not just that the burn is still healing?

    So, for scars: they do fade by themselves with time but that does take about 8 to 18 months for burn scars. So scar creams would probably be your best bet. I've heard good things about mederma and bio-oil although there are a number of options. Scar screams work over the long term (you won't see instant results) so in the meantime you can try using concealer or foundation over them, wear long sleeves, or wrap your arm in an ace bandage and say you sprained your wrist.
