A lot of people use the inner thigh for infusion sets. Never hurts to try! If by scars you mean the little red pump bumps after removing a set, they don't really bother me. They do take awhile to fade but they eventually go away. Maybe try putting a tiny bit of Neosporin on the site whenever you remove a set.
