What options are available to remove and / or reduce scars from IV injections (discoloration) and IV abscess scars?

Asked By:jewdat in Miami, FL

I have a history of drug abuse and my biggest concern, aside from recovery, is how scarred my arms got, above the forearms, all the way to my biceps. And I have mixed scarring, some from bad abscesses from recurring injections and lack of proper sterilization (the last one from about 3 months ago and the oldest from 3 years ago.) Nowadays I have a really hard time showing my arms, and I think it even affects my recovery process. What are my options, regardless of cost?
