Dermatologist,  's  Response
hello
Im dr satya and hope that things are fine with you.
dark depressed scars are best treated by subcission and grafts if they are small in size. well in your case the size is not mentioned. CO2 laser, may correct shallow scars.
thank you and hope you get a good result.
