Watermelon favia issue

Hi all, my tank had some issues a few months back and because of it my watermelon favia lost its reddish colors and turned totally black.

My tank is ok now and I am noticing growth from the favia but the red parts still remain black. Will it ever regain its red color again?

I would feed it a couple times a week and see how it does. If new heads have red coloring then it just might take the older heads a bit to regain their color. If you were going to give it more light I would make it the blue spectrum.
