Dark marks on legs should be left alone

You are describing post inflammatory hyperpigmentation of the legs. I would discourage you undergoing any surgical, laser or other treatment as you have a greater chance of making this worse. Bleaching creams may help slightly. I would not do peels. The best cure is time.
