Speeding up healing of red scars

I have very fair skin and it takes forever to heal from cuts or surgical scars. the wound heals fine but the incision stays red for months. are there any new studies to show that Red LED therapy would help to speed the fading process up? I've tried scar creams and silicone, didn't seem to do much.
