It depends: Scars from mosquito bites may improve with time but if they are still visible after 6-12 months, a plastic surgeon can help. Lasers, injections or surgical excision can help if they are thickened. Lightening creams may fade out dark spots if they are flat or lasers are an alternative. If they are pale, camoflage tattoos can hide. There are many ways to help so see your doctor.

Early salicylic late: Early on, salicylic a i'd preparations may limit inflammation which can produce hyperpigmentation. Late pigmentation can be treated with bleaching agents such as hydroquinone in combination with a retinoid and steroid. Alternatively, some chemical peels or fractionated laser treatments can also produce nice results. Only rarely is surgery needed.
