How do I get rid of a raised chickenpox scar?

I have a slightly raised chickenpox scar on my chest. I 've had it since I was 5. I used Scar guard silicone pads and that didn't work. I am now using some CVS brand skin treatment oil. If that doesn't work, does anybody have any other ideas?

    Your scar is too old for over the counter treatments to work. The only effective option is to have a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgery inject cortisone into the scar to remove it.
