You have signs of permanent scarring, but there are over-the-counter treatments that may help make your scars less noticeable. Try using an alpha hydroxy acid cream or a cream that contains 2% hydroquinone to lighten the scars. If you don't see any improvement after 1-2 months, consult a dermatologist for treatment options. Old scars can be treated with Laser Resurfacing or Dermabrasion. Good luck.
