Consult plast surgeo: Scars can sometimes be revised to have a better appearance by those with the training & experience to do so. A plastic surgeon with an interest in reconstructive work is often able to evaluate what you have now & let you know if surgery can help.

Scars: Scars are permanent, but can be improved over time. Massage, silicone creams (like biocorneum), and sunscreen, will all help. See a plastic surgeon for additional advice.
