Thanks, Curious, for your response. I did purchase some mederma (boy, that stuff is EXPENSIVE!) and have been using it. I haven't seen any improvement yet, but the tube says for existing scars it takes 6-8 months to see if it works, applying it 3x's a day. So, we'll see. In readig the tube, it stated more that it takes care of the raised skin, smooths it out, but mine aren't really raised...it's the discoloration. I was wondering about lemon juice. I know it bleaches hair. Do you thik it would bleach skin?

In reading Mike's literature, it doesn't sound like much of anything will heal the lesions.
