The pigmentation may take a year or longer to return. Exposure to the sun should be avoided or it will be pink forever. The new skin that replaced the burnt skin is like new baby skin. It must be protected. Topical Vitamin E oil, cream or lotion will help. Good Health To You!!
I had a third degree one...it only took 9 months or so to dissapear. Yours will go, don't worry.
