Will a chemical peel help reduce my old self inflicted scars? (Photos)

lalachas
I have old self harm scars from a time where I was depressed. It happened only 2 times and I vowed never to do it again. The scars themselves are somewhat long but not raised. They are thin cuts so they mostly look like scratch marks, with the exception of two that are brownish in color. I would really like to get rid of these scars, thank you.
