Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
That depends on the depth and type of the scars. With few types of peels and derma abrasions depth of the scars can be reduced.

View allI've got these dark, lump-like scars from some leech bites I had a few months back. They're not itchy or anything, but I'm wondering what I can do to treat them. Any advice?
I recommend using Mederma Advanced Scar Gel to help reduce the appearance of the dark scars caused by the leech bites. Apply a thin layer of Mederma Advanced Scar Gel on the affected area once daily. This can help improve the appearance of the scars over time.
