    Old Scars on legs treatment
    Hi I just want to ask how you could treat old scars in the legs? I've had them since I was 8 years old when I had german meascles. They had left brown circle marks on my legs so I can't wear minis or shorts.

    Try that new bio oil expensive but works on stretch marks and uneven skin tones. Well worth a try for around a tenner

    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.
