How to treat 10+ y/o cold sore scars on upper lip (vermillion border)? (Photos)

I've had some cold sore scars on my upper lip along my vermillion border (both sides) that I got from not letting the scabs heal completely. They've mostly turned white from loss of pigment, but when my lips are flush with blood (I'm very vascular/thin skinned) it looks worse. I've struggled a lot mentally with having the scars, it's kinda like a stamp on my face that I have HSV-1. What are my options? Would a tattoo work?
