Hello
Thanks for the query.
Most of the chickenpox scars tend to disappear in 6 to 9 months.
Till then you may use some home remedies like
1....Application of vitamin E oil on your skin.
2... Eat foods like spinach XXXXXXX cabbage,broccoli,tomatoes etc as they are high in VIT K which helps in healing of skin.
3... Apply fresh cut lemon on your scar marks.
4.. Drink plenty of water.
If you still feel that your scar marks are there after 9 months,you may consult a dermatologist who can do the following things according to the situation of scars
1.. Microdermaabrasion
2...photo facial
3.. Surgical excision if scars are XXXXXXX or above methods fail.

I hope to have answered your query however you may revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
