Molting
 
They can take a few weeks yes, looks like it's starting to come out
 
The first molt of mine, I thought it was dying it shriveled up so much, and it lasted about a month. Much quicker and less dramatic since then! Be patient!
 
does it have a shiny sheen to it ?
 
Discoloration (mine looked kind of gray ergo which I thought it was dying) and a shiny sheen.
Same here. Sometimes it took days to return to normal; other times, it took longer.

If your other corals are still doing well and nothing has changed in your tank, I would also think molting.

Keep watching it! If it shed then it will continue to open back up!
