A member asked:

I got chicken pox awhile back , and i still have scars is it possible to get rid of the scars if so how?

Difficult: There is no easy way to get rid of skin scars from chicken pox. If yours are sufficiently troublesome, you might be able to have plastic surgery for them. Ask your doctor for a referral.
