Scarring After Arm Lipo

1032anon
I am 23, 5'2 and 118 lbs. I am fit but still can't shrink the size of my arms (thus the doctor said lipo would be a good option). With good skin tone, how soon will the scars become less visible? I know it takes up to a year for FULL disappearance, but when do they become fairly unnoticeable?
