Hi,

Are the scars secondary to some trauma?

What is your age? Are you on any medications currently?

You could talk to a skin specialist about demylenizing creams, microdermabrasion and laser therapy and whether that would help in your case and what would the most suitable option in your case.

Let us know about how you are doing and what your doctor advises.

Regards.
