Hi, for scars as recent as two weeks old, i would suggest you to meet a dermatologist near you and apply a good moisturising cream / aloe vera based cream in the day and a skin lightening cream at night. Topical retinoid is another option. if there are pits and scars, you'll need procedural treatment. Hope this helps, warm regards Dr Govind Suresh Mittal
