How to improve atrophic scars on the shins? i have several small indentations from injuries on my lower legs. my derm says there is nothing i can do!

Derm is correct: So you have some scars on your legs. I have some, too. They are from football, but people prefer my exciting war stories. My friends all wish they had some of their own.
