It is common for a sunburn to eventually fade from the distinct redness into a slightly darker complexion than the previous skin tone. Still, the degree to which people tan heavily varies from person to person, with many individuals noticing significantly darker complexions after recovering from very mild sunburns. Some individuals see almost no difference in complexion tone after the redness has completely dissipated. Any tan that does result from sunburn is just another indication that damage has been done to the skin cells from exposure to UV rays, so going out into the sun to get a sunburn with the intention of developing a tan will just result in more damage being done to the skin and increase the risk of developing premature wrinkles and skin cancers.
