Hi

If the scars are recent, then silicone gels may help to improve thick and deep scars. In your case, the scars have been present for quite sometime already. Moisturizers like vitamin E may help smoothen the skin and may also soften the scar tissue.This may not readily improve in weeks or months using topical therapy alone such as vitamin E cream.  In your case, microdermabrasion and low level laser therapy may be able to help and may give better and long lasting results .
