You can lighten scars by using either home remedies or over the counter whitening creams.
Those who want to lighten scars the natural way can use lemon juice (leave it on for 15 mins before rinsing), aloe gel (can be applied alone or with honey & sandalwood in a paste), olive oil (massage scars with it for 15 mins), vitamin E (massage also), honey, the combination of yogurt and lemon (use it as a mask), milk (dab it with cotton wool) and cucumber (spread paste over scars and rinse after 10 mins).
As for whitening creams, avoid those that have harmful ingredients like hydroquinone. Choose products like Whiterderm, etc --those that are made from natural ingredients.
