Unfortunately if they are form childhood you can't really get rid of them without expensive laser procedures or plastic surgery. To prevent future scars, make sure you keep cuts moisturized with an antibiotic ointment such as neosporin and a band aid.

Talk to a dermatologist about microdermabrasion. It is a way of peeling away the outer layers of skin to minimize the appearance of scars, but I'm not sure if it can erase them. One thing to talk with him about explicitly, though is his experience perfomring these procedures on people of color. Our skin can respond differently to some of these procedures because some of us keloid.
Best wishes!
