4. age

they will fade somewhat with age.
microdermabrasion is done if you want to get rid of them now.
i'm sure there are creams that work a little too.

5. I have trauma scars from..

an accident. They are small and not noticeable unless you stare up close, but they have been a source of frustration for me, probably in large part due to the fact that I got them when I was a teenager.

Anyhow, I know quite a bit more than I should abut treating scars now. The answer to your question depends entirely on what type of scars you have, though there are a few treatments that work universally. The key is to find a doctor who has experience treating scars, and is versed in using different methods.

Here are a couple of message boards devoted to the topic of scar treatment:

My caveat to you would be to try not to spend too much time worrying about it. It can become an obsession.
