Chances are it's fins won't get the color they once had. You will always be able to tell the fins were damaged.

The best thing to do is to keep it alon or with peaceful fish in a cycled tank with clean water. Add a little salt and melafix and don't change the water parameters dramatically. I don't know any meds that help lacerations.
