How Long Will It Take for Tretinoin to Remodel Pre-existing Acne Scars?

Will it take at least a year from the date of starting tretinoin, or at least a year from the time that the scars were revealed while using the tretinoin? Is there a chance that more scars will be revealed if I continue to use tretinoin, even after using it for as long as eight months?
