Brief Answer:
Laser treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Black spots after chicken pox lesions usually resolve on their own with time.
However, since much time has elapsed, chances of spontaneous resolution are low.
You can go for laser treatment for the removal of spots.
I will suggest you to consult a dermatologist for proper examination and laser treatment accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
