It's been almost 10 years. I've given up on the hope of them being less jarring to look at so covering is the only thing I can do...

I'm ignorant to the whole thing, but I would imagine they're deep scars. Have you tried getting lotions with salicylic acid? It's a sking steroid that is supposed to help with scars, stretch marks, and psoriasis

I'm ignorant to what transition scars would be on the legs.

Hope I'm not intruding. If OP is like me Salicylic acid will not work for some strange reason, metabolism maybe. I am currently in month 2 of 6 of trying silicon scar sheets like these and my scar is getting less pronounced and smaller. I usually put these on the scar right before going to bed and leave it on for the night. Sometimes even forget it and it stays on for the day too. So far I can recommend these.

Your comment certainly seems more experienced than mine. I've used it on shallow scars ony inner arms and knees and it took care of the scars. Just figured I'd try and share what I've experienced

I haven't but if 10 years of time won't help then neither will any cream or lotion

But does it hurt to try it?
