If the wounds are already closed over, suntan lotion for 6 months can help. It turns out that ever after a wound is covered by scar tissue, the scar tissue continues to evolve over a period of 6-12 months. During this time, the scar tissue can tan differently from the surrounding normal skin so putting suntan lotion over the entire area (normal skin and scars) will help keep the scars from being as visible.
If, after 6 months, you are dissatisfied with the appearance of the scars, you can consult a plastic surgeon and see what they can offer. Generally, they like to see scar patients after 6 months to see what's left after the natural evolution of the scar.
Good luck!

Bio-Oil is the best. I used it on my appendicitis scar and it worked wonders.
