Keep it covered and moist at all times. Keep A&D ointment on it and cover with bandages or compresses. Change them often.
Also, after it heals keep it out of the sun as much as possible. The skin will be new and very succeptible to increased damage by the sun.

there is a product you can get at the drug store called 2nd skin. It is amazing!!! stops scarring and heals the burn a million times faster as well as instantly relieving the pain.
If you cant find that use Vitamin E cream 2x per day, as well as Aloe Gel to relieve the burning. Depending on the severity of the burn you might be stuck with a scar no matter what you do. If you are around the hot grease all the time i would reccomend finding the 2nd skin. Im a chef and burn myself often on pans oil and the oven. i keep 2nd skin with me all the time.
Cold water is also supposed to be bad although it relieves the burning temporarily. You are supposed to use room temperature water. I have only been told this last statement and dont know how true it is.

you wont have a choice as to whether or not your arm scars...it all depends on your own body's healing process...some burns do scar - others dont..varies from person to person and also the degree of the burn...nature will do what it has to do. the only consolation is that in time - scars do fade.

you should put an anti-spetic cream on it now and cover it with a bandage if the burn is recent. Then i would advise you apply tissue oil every day and this is stop and reduce scars!

Cut a slice of onion and place on it asap.
this will heal it the best I know so far.
Buy some sort of burn cream for it and place onion on top, slice of it.

When it's healed, go buy a stick of pure cocoa butter. They carry it at most drug stores.

They have special bandages just for burns that work really good because they keep it moist.
