^ Can i firstly just say, if you are going to continue to IV drugs, you really need to start alternating spots. Not only is this good practice in terms of minimising obvious track marks, but you will also minimise the risk of vein collapse and infection.
By the time i stopped using needles, i had lost most of the good veins in my forearms and there were obvious signs of needle use ie track marks, heavy bruising. It was horrendous . Bruising goes away relatively quickly, however it took probably about three months for all the track marks to heal. It will depend on the severity of your marks, but, yes, they will all eventually heal.
Still though, my friend, rotate, rotate, rotate! Not only for aesthetic reasons, but to keep your veins from collapsing
