You could wear jewelry. There are options for scar treatment and if you look through this forum you will find several threads that talk about those. Try using the search box to find them - if you search for scars in the subject line.

I've found that people don't notice my scars as much as I think they would unless I act in such a way to call attention to them.

right now I can only think of jewellry and a big watch (if it's on your wrist) or both in combo... that has helped me.... all depends on where your scars are, how big, how noticable etc.... but as rapunzel said, you'd be surprised as to how many people don't notice... or they just won't say anything....

Most people don't say anything. People seem to be more aware of it now.

Well, long sleeves, jewelry, and depending on the severity of the scars, you could try using a little makeup like foundation or something like that.
