How Can I Remove my Discolored Chicken Pox Mark on my NOSE?

I am a teen and I got chiken pox when I was very little, about 1 year old Unfotunately I scratched those marks, and now I have one big scar on my nose. And this scar makes me feel very discouraged. It is oval shaped. And 3-4 tones darker than my skin tone. I have tan skin, and the colour of the scar is brownish. What can I do to remove it? And the big question is that can I remove it. I was thinking of permanent make up or filler injections to hide it? I don't want to do surgery, since I'm pretty small.
