Will my scar improve? Is there anything I can do to help treat it? (Photo)

February 18, 2014

I fell of my bike and scraped my shoulder a little over a year and a half ago. There was minor bleeding but it did turn really red and scab This is how the scar looks now. Will it heal more over time? How visible will it be? Are there any treatments for it? Thanks
