Asked By:melai21 in Philippines, PH

Hi! I am 21 years old and i have plenty of scars on both legs and few on my arms since i was about 10 years old. I think the reason is that I had scabies back then. They are much darker than in picture. Are there any cure to this type of scar? i include photo here for better examination. Thanks so much!
