Not so simple: Some scarring in liver might be partially reversible, depending on underlying cause. Lots of causes, includong alcohol; infections (usually viral); toxic effects of drugs, herbs; autoimmune; metabolic, including mineral abnormalities, diabetes, obesity; other. Depends on extent of damage as well. Avoiding causative or noxious agents, like alcohol, may help prevent progression of damage
