Are these chicken pox scars or new skin ( I am very confused) ?

I just recovered from adult chicken pox, I only scratched and broke one of the blisters (thinking it was a zit). . . all others were left untouched until the scab fell off on its own.


The skin under it is pale and then I developed a dark brown rings around those pale pink spots, are these considered scars? Or is it just new untanned layer of skin?


If there is a difference, what are the chances of these pale spots going away? Thanks.


Plus I am using a scar-removing gel on it (right off from the day the scabs fell off).

I still have two distinct chicken pox scars from when i was 5. They look exactly the way you described. I'm 20 now and they faded just a bit on their own. I used cocoa butter on one that is noticable on my arm it's pretty much just a slight dark ring, the light part in the middle pretty much matches the rest of my skin tone now. I have one on my tummy that i've never treated with anything and it faded some but is still pretty noticable. I've heard good things about alot of the products on the market now...it couldn't hurt give it a try!!!
