Hi! sahil,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum,
Treatment depends upon the texture,length and width of scar.Also whether it is raised or depressed from the skin level.You can meet a plastic surgeon for the same.Now a days there are lasers for resurfacing of scars ..and if it depressed then you can go for fillers .If possible plastic surgeon can do a scar revision too.
Take care,
Dr.chawda
