How Can I Lighten The Skin Tone And Get Rid Of Scars?

Hi. I am obese and currently losing weight. I am a bit bothered by my inner thighs. They became dark and I am not sure exactly if I'm growing acne or boils. Overtime, those acne or boils became scars. My question is how to lighten the skin tone and rid of the scarring?
