How To Get Rid Of Chicken Pox Marks On Legs And Arms?

Hi my name is Gaelle I am currently 24 and had chicken pox around the age of 10 or so very young. They are mainly visible on my legs and arms. They marks on my legs have kept me from being comfortable. I am not able to where a skirt or shorts or cropped jeans because the marks are so visible. The marks are literally all over my legs and thighs. Some are big and some are small. They marks have faded over the years. I have tried so many creams, lotions, oils, natural remedies,and have also gone for a consultation with a dermatologist about getting a peel done for my legs. Even after all the remedies I ve tried the marks on my legs are still visible and haven t changed in a while. I just want to be able to wear a dress above my knees or shorts or a skirt as a woman. Please help me.
