what are the options for the removal of scars resulting from self harm
It depends on how bad the scars are. If they are deep or raised (keloid) then cosmetic surgery with with radiation treatments is an option. It should be a last resort though. I'd try laser treatments first. If that doesn't work, talk with your doctor about possible scar revision surgery. Just remember, that it will still leave a scar. You can't get away with no scar at all.
Another option is to get a tattoo to cover your scars. Just a few things to think about.
