The images suggest Hypertrophic Scars. The scars take about 3 to 6 months to stabilise.

Next Steps

Topical medicated gel application at this stage for 2-3 months will clear the scar.

Health Tips

A scar persisting beyond 6 months in spite of topical therapy will require other modalities such as microneedling.
