I feel this post even though I am not trans. My wife, an ex professional athlete, blew out her knee twice and has very visible scars. She never wears anything that doesn't cover her knees and is very self conscious in a bathing suit because of the scars. I hate to see her unhappy and uncomfortable.

A tattoo might be a good way of covering the scars up. There are artists that specialize in things like covering mastectomy scars, so it's worth a look.
