They are not harmful but is cosmetically distasteful. There are a lot of options of treatment like intralesional steroid injections and fractional co2 laser treatment.

The only issue is that it can occur on other parts of the body. No proper home remedies for this. You can get injections or you can get silicone gel sheet. But again, we need pictures first to tell you what the best treatment should be
