  • How do I get rid of acne scars?

    I have scars from acne. I don't pick at the scars, and I've tried vitamin E, cocoa butter, ';scar zone';, none of them worked. Any suggestions? Please don't tell me to get rid of the acne. I don't have a problem with acne anymore, just the scars.How do I get rid of acne scars?
    i would buy proactive it works really wellHow do I get rid of acne scars?
    You could go to an Esthetician and microdermabrasion treatments, or chemical peels, Glycolic or TCA, either one works great. Nothing will work overnight, but microderm will work the fastest. Get a series of 3 to 5 and you will dramatic improvements. Report Abuse

    You need to see a dermatologist...depending on how bad they are you may need anything from lotion to a surgery.
    plastic surgens dont just do drastic plastic surgery they do other stuff to.try one of those.
    go to the african store %26amp; ask them for shea butter (shay butter)


    not that watered down crap from the drug store


    it doesnt smell good - so use it before bed %26amp; only a little bit!! especially if you are only using it for your face


    cocoa butter should have helped


    nothing works overnight sweetie - you have to be consistent





    best wishes!
    First, you MUST see a doctor.


    Second, the solution is Tretinoin. It's available with so many trade marks, such as Ketrel, Locacid, or the original Tretinoin. But it may cause irritation if your skin in sensitive.

    Good luck
    Yup, Elmo is right. There are chemical peels%26amp; laser surgery for scar reduction. Sorry to break it to you but you're going to have to invest more money than x amount of dollars for any lotion on the market. Let's not forget about the time it takes to recover from these radical treatments. See a dermatologist ASAP.

    How to get rid of scars naturally and not spend tons of money?

    do you know how i can get rid of scars ranging from acne scars to just normal ones?? and not have to spend a whole lot of money?? any home remedies or something?How to get rid of scars naturally and not spend tons of money?
    If you want to get rid of normal scars, you should apply hydro cortisone. It may burn a little, but that is only because it is killing the bacteria. Also, rubbing some vitamin E on scars works. Hope I helped!How to get rid of scars naturally and not spend tons of money?
    over the counter, ';mederma.'; it comes in a cream and works well, but you need to use it over a period of time, and start using after the wound heals.
    Mix 1 part Apple Cider Vinegar and 1 part water and leave on your face for about 10 to 15 minutes and then wash it off. Also, Scarzone A is supposed to work really well and it is only $6 at drugstores.
    Try some of these homemade face-masks and recipes.

    How to make my acne scars disappears using simple remedies and tips??

    Im 17 and have some acne problem before this.. Its really annoying to see such a scar on my face every time i take a picture.. What can i practice daily to make the scar disappears???How to make my acne scars disappears using simple remedies and tips??
    I have the same problem (i am 23). I have been using some tips from Dan's Regimen. They also have reviews on products from the store and you don't have to buy anything. i have been using Spectro gel and 5% benzoyl peroxide cream (Peragel) and it's been working quite well. I also make an aspirin mask once a week (also found on this site) and my zits aren't coming in as much. my blemishes are also fading too.

    Sorry,


    A scar will not just go way. The tissue of your skin has been changed they will fade with time but you will have them all your life.
    Hi, I can understand how you feel cause i was once in your situation. Try getting a hold of an oil called Bio-Oil its made in South Africa from any cosmetics shop and apply on your face every morning and evening after washing your face. Also, don't pop your pimples cause that contributes to scarring. Good luck!

    How do I hide my scars and current cuts on my wrists and arms?

    I can't stop cutting and I'm not about to so dont go down that road i just need to know what can I do to hide these scars? I tried wearing long sleeves but its really hot right now and My mom gets worried, I wear braclets but that just covers up my wrists and i have really bad ones all up my arm.I have even tried bands but agin, they only cover up small sections and, too hot!How do I hide my scars and current cuts on my wrists and arms?
    Umm...pretty much sleeves is the only options. If you dont want to get too hot, you shouldnt cut yourself. It really does sound like you need counseling BAD.How do I hide my scars and current cuts on my wrists and arms?
    if u aint gonna stop cutting..we cant help u sry bud..go c a phycatrist??
    you could wear those arm things from hot topic, they are like gloves with out the fingers, other than that, maybe try and stop??


    hope i helped(:
    I've been through this so I know how it is. Is it possible for you to make up a story of how they got there ? Like go biking and come home and pretend you fell in a thorn bush or something. I know it's hard to stop and you don't want to, but believe me. Get out when you can because it's a bad road.
    Why do it if you are so proud of it? You obviously don't care if people know, so why would you hide them...?
    Well obviously you should try to work on stopping. I know it's hard I slipped up and did it again a couple weeks ago after being ';clean'; for almost 6 months seriously I was one week short of 6 months ';/





    So all I can say is make up some good excuses , got any friends with pets, you could say they scratched you ? (I worked in a pet shop best excuse in the world) ... Maybe try switching from your arms and wrists to other places hidden by clothing.





    Honestly you should try and stop tho. A couple months to years down the road your gonna start realizing how perminant those scars are and how they'll be there forever. Think about when you get married someday and how your scars will look with your wedding dress.





    Also your gonna get tired of the looks you get from people, I have one going completely around my wrist like a bracelet and i can't reach for anything without stares. It's annoying. So maybe after these heal you try and stop. Even though you don't want to, in the long run you'll be glad you did. Best Wishes.
    ya i know how you feel especially when im playing sports its really hard to hide. ive been faking a sprained wrist and bandaging my arm for awhile and people haven't really questioned it. at home i wear short sleeves but stay a distance from the family and if i have to come close and hang around im in a hoodie and its all good but at school i just wear light hoodies or long sleeves. i try to switch it up a bit. buy light long sleeves and hoodies in the fall
    sorry, sounds like you tried everything but what actually will work: stopping. i understand it may be hard, but know that you are a beautiful unique individual. please stop hurting yourself!
    well one. Don't cut, thats the only way to hide them





    other than that, when i was cutting (am no more) the only thing i found was a sweatshirt. Concealor doesn't work, bands/bracelets don't work or look stupid... thats about your only options

    How long will the pimple scars go away?

    I just bought this cocoa butter formula with vitamin e to get rid of my pimple scars. How long do you think I have to use it for the pimple scars to go away?How long will the pimple scars go away?
    on there own i think its 12 - 18 months, im not sure cocoa butter will do much, im using differin gel and in 6 months theyve improved a lot.





    laser treatment is your best option, that would be about 6-8 weeksHow long will the pimple scars go away?
    I'm not sure about using cocoa butter, I thought that was more for stretch marks. They have something called Rose Tonic at Bath and Body Works that is supposed to lighten facial blemishes. Works pretty well for me. Korres has a rose mask for the same thing on Sephora. If the scar is recent, more like a scab, try putting some neosporin on it to help it heal with less discoloration.

  • Can you suggest a product the would lessen the appearance of acne scars on my face?

    I have acne scars that are easily covered with foundation, but I would like to have them gone completely, or be less noticable. One of my scars is a small pit scar, the others are light pink.Can you suggest a product the would lessen the appearance of acne scars on my face?
    Lemon juice. It not only helps with the acne itself, but it lightens scars as well. Plus, it's very inexpensive, and easy to find. Take a cotton ball, soak it with lemon juice, and put it all over your face after scrubbing with warm water and soap. It works wonderfully for me. Hope this helps you!

    Can someone recommend a good way to get rid of or fade scars?

    Perhaps you and your mom could go in town and look at the products available. Ask her. She may even offer to help pay for them.Can someone recommend a good way to get rid of or fade scars?
    look at walmart for a product that will get rid of the scars... i know there is something out there... try searching google for a product
    Vitamin E cream, and wear sunscreen because too much sun exposure will make them darker.
    The best thing I can recommend is Mederma. You can buy a tube at the pharmacy or Walmart. I used it for stretch marks and it really did the trick.
    use neutrogena daily scrub, this will make them fade and make ur skin glow


    then u can bleach the areas using jolen hair bleach. this will lighten them further

    How many bottles of mineral water do I have to drink in order to get rid of my acne/scars?

    How many bottles of mineral water a day, I mean. And how long does it take to show an improvment in my skin? And does it get rid of scars or just acne? (I think just acne)


    Thanks!How many bottles of mineral water do I have to drink in order to get rid of my acne/scars?
    drink normal water and just drink a good amount a day theres no permanent amount (like 4 cups or whatever)...just wash it at night (st. ives apricot cleanser or scrub works good) and dont drink 8 glasses. 8 cups of water a day is bad for you. i just finished a personal fitness class that amount includes other foods and drinks; water is found in all drinks and most foods, so 8 is over-doing itHow many bottles of mineral water do I have to drink in order to get rid of my acne/scars?
    in all honesty, you probably aren't going to see any improvements in either. Just drink regular water.
    i never knew that that did anything. i thought that just normal water was good enough.
    Drinking just pure water (at least 8 glasses a day) will detox you and your skin will clear up.

  • Would you rather coverup your scars so no one can see them, or would you rather let others see them?

    i have scars everywhere. from my face, neck, back, etc. cuts from sports, self inflicted cuts, cuts from razors. all that have left scars. i have acne scars and vitiligo scars. all kinds of scars. i don't let people see my scars, because in ways i feel like it will be as bad as the elephant man, which it is not, but yeah, well when you have been told you are scarred/unattractive without them covered up you don't let people see them.Would you rather coverup your scars so no one can see them, or would you rather let others see them?
    it's just a scar. I love all my scars. They all have a story behind them and what I went through to get it. Some are from crazy days in my life and doing stupid things, some are from surgeries I had and some are from being a kid and getting hurt.





    Show your scars off and tell the stories behind them. They make you, who you are.Would you rather coverup your scars so no one can see them, or would you rather let others see them?
    Let them see. Scars show what you've been through, things you have done, adventures you have been on. The remind you of little things. You should feel proud. Like, 'I got this one from sky diving!' you know what i mean?





    -Hannah ;)
    let them see. its you who cares
    When I have scars after my pimples dry up, I neither cover them with makeup nor show them to people. I always keep zenmed's scars and hyperpigmentation kit for treating my acne scars as well as dark spots. So I would recommend the same for treating all types of scars, sun spots, cuts from razors, skin darkening due to hormonal changes.





    You could also use my discount code ';zen4less'; in case if you decide to buy from them online.
    i have a horrible scarring from surgury and i make sure nobody sees it
    I have a scar that covers a line the entire length of my left fore arm and my advice is to flaunt it, who cares what every one else thinks, every scar has a story
    I would cover them up!
    I have scars on my forehead and chin which I don't purposely cover up.


    My legs and arms also have quite a few scars which I also do not cover.


    My chest is riddled with small dot scars from blistering which I do not cover.


    None of my scars are massive nor stand out that much.


    People never mention or care about my scars and if anyone asks I will tell them how I got it.
    If you are comfortablein your own skin, then I say forget what everyone else has to say. Show your scars b/c they tell a story but more importantly YOUR STORY!!!!

    How long does it take for Vitamin E to begin to fade scars?

    I have dark marks/scars all over my legs from picking at bites etc. People have suggested Vitamin E. I want fast results so i dont have to go through another summer being embarressed to wear shorts. How long does it normally take for Vitamin E to make a difference in the appearence of scars?How long does it take for Vitamin E to begin to fade scars?
    Try a product called Miracell, available at Walgreens %26amp; most health food stores. It will start to work immediately, but may take til summer if the scars are deep. They have thousands of testimonials of skin conditions it clears up.How long does it take for Vitamin E to begin to fade scars?
    It can take up to months or years, from my own experience. I'd take both vitamin E capsules and also buy the oil (you can actually buy it in a pure form, such as Bio Oil, which is designed to try to minimise scars but it's a bit more expensive) to rub on your scars.





    Allowing your skin to tan ever so slightly also helps to camoflage scaring so, even if you're too embarassed, try to wear shorts in privacy of your own garden if you can. But mind to be wearing sun cream when you do so rather than the oil. Concealor (ordinary concealor or something specialist like http://www.dermablend.com/) or even fake tan is also a good option to hide scars and if they're really bad, you should consider visiting your doctors to see if he suggests anything more.
    Vitamin E has never helped my scars lighten up any. I used it for months at a time. I've used the thick gooey vitamin E as well as the vitamin E oil, but like I said, they didn't help me out and I have a very large and dark scar on my abdomen. Sorry. :(
    why be afraid- express yurself with the scars
    You should get a Vitamin E lotion - just rub it all over your legs every day. It will work gradually over time. You can use a self-tanner to cover the marks.





    If you find that you pick your skin and can't stop, there's a name for it - dermatillamania. Google it - you'll see it's more common than you think. You can try mild anti-anxiety medications or therapy to help you stop.
    a few weeks, open the capsuals and put direct onto your legs, twice a day, and still take them.

    NOTE鈥 HAVE WRITTEN THIS LONG ANSWER TO RESPOND TO QUESTIONS RELATING TO BECAUSE THEY COME UP SO OFTEN:





    OILY SKIN

    DEALING WITH ACNE SCARRING


    DEALING WITH STRETCH MARKS


    IMPROVING SKIN TONE


    PIMPLES

    EMERGENCY SPOT TREATMENT


    INGROWING HAIRS


    BODY ACNE





    鈥HE INFO鈥橲 BASED ON MY OWN EXPERIENCE. I鈥橫 36 NOW SO I鈥橵E HAD TO DEAL WITH THESE ISSUES FOR QUITE A WHILE AND THOUGH MUCH OF THIS ANSWER MAY BE IRRELEVANT, I HOPE THERE'LL BE SOMETHING THAT CAN HELP YOU!





    GOOD LUCK!!!





    RECOMMENDED SKIN CARE鈥 use clean and clear cream wash (good for sensitive skin or those that dry to easy) or Neutrogena clear skin make up remover wash. Both contain salicylic acid which prevents breakouts and gradually evens the skin tone out too. This is the most important thing you can do. I鈥檝e tried various 鈥榦il free鈥?鈥檚alicylic acid鈥?moisturisers but the best I鈥檝e found is the clean and clear on鈥 found the Neutrogena one actually seemed to aggravate my skin.





    EMERGENCY SPOT TREATMENT!...The toothpaste things works! Put on a blob at night and put a bit of tissue over it so it doesn't make a mess. It cools the area down and reduces the inflammation. I also recommend the clean and clear advantage spot treatment gel.





    HORMONAL SPOTS鈥ny female with spots I'd recommend trying dianette or yasmine contraceptive pills because if it's hormonal that can sort everything out within weeks鈥hough it can take a couple of months to get used to the pill.





    FACIAL ACNE: AVOID鈥on't use harsh scrubs and peroxide products daily like some people do; that can dry your skin and make produce MORE oil...just exacerbating the problem. Many face packs I鈥檝e tried and those blackhead removal strips too seem to have caused problems.





    I鈥檝e also had problems with those 鈥榝acial wipes鈥?made by clean and clear and Neutrogena because they鈥檙e too drying and when the top layer鈥檚 too dry, the oil gets stuck underneath and causes more problems!





    Some say chocolate doesn鈥檛 affect it鈥t does for me and I don鈥檛 know how or why that should be but certain foods do seem to affect break out. Coffee is one of those things that seems to aggravate my skin too. So look out for anything you eat that might be making it worse.





    HAIR PRODUCTS鈥e careful what products you use in your hair if it's long - certain conditioners have causes me to break out at times. Also be careful of hair gels, hair sprays and serums.





    INGROWING HAIRS鈥or men or women鈥f you have oily skin, these are more likely. For men鈥se a facial scrub and avoid moisturisers that don鈥檛 have salicylic acid in them if you use a moisturiser. Some hair conditioners are much better lubricants than shaving cream too 鈥?so you might want to try that, and then was afterwards with a clean and clear was etc. Also I recommend the microdermabrasion kit mentioned later.





    For women鈥axing seems to cause the main problem 鈥?we pay most attention to our faces. Waxing seems to be the main culprit as opposed to shaving or hair removal creams鈥o avoid in-growing hairs, make sure to exfoliate. I recommend using those exfoliating gloves 鈥?that way, you can use any kind of shower gel.





    NUTRITION鈥 recommend taking a 100% multi vitamin/mineral complex 鈥?those little spots you get around your mouth can be due to a vitamin b deficiency for example. Also I recommend Omega 369 oils every day because they improve blood flow.





    OLD WIVES TALE??...It's an 'old wives tale' type remedy - but a spoonful of cider vinegar and honey in hot water 3 times a day is meant to help EVERYTHING. It tastes nice too...kinda like honey and lemon X





    HYDRATION鈥?Keep your hydration right by drinking plenty of water, avoiding caffeine and alcohol and too much salt!





    DEALING WITH SCARRING鈥here鈥檚 an excellent micro-dermabrasion scrub called 鈥榬e-finish鈥? by L'oreal. You only use it a couple of times a week (and use at night because it makes your face red!). It really works not just with the colouring but also the texture - smoothes it back out. It comes with it's own moisturiser which I don't use but I use the scrub at night a couple of times a week and put bio oil on which it supposed to help clear scarring and even skin tone.





    If you get your skin relatively under control, try using '21 days Fade Cream' (which I get from eBay) because it quickly clears up any scarring. It鈥檚 a skin lightening cream and is very effective as long as your skin type agrees with it. Bio oil is a good alternative!





    Also, to detract from the colour variations in your skin tone, I recommend using Benefit鈥檚 Posie Tint or Benetint lipstain 鈥?this can be put on your cheeks and lips (which also makes your teeth look whiter as an added bonus). Lipstain is better than lipstick because it doesn鈥檛 smudge and it stays on; you can put lip balm or lip gloss on over it. Also, if you use it (SPARINGLY) on your cheeks, it is just like putting water on there; it doesn鈥檛 aggravate the skin or cause breakouts.

    How do you get rid of acne scars and get better skin?

    The scars arnt that bad, but is there anyway to get better skin? i am taking tablets for the reddness. thanks.How do you get rid of acne scars and get better skin?
    try BIO OIL, its very good for all diff skin conditions available from Boots, Superdrug etc! goodluckHow do you get rid of acne scars and get better skin?
    Retin-A will make your skin peel, hence new and rejuventated skin and no scars. It takes a while and you have to put up with the flaky skin, so make sure you moisturize. Have your doctor prescribe it for you.
    My acne scars are actually fading, i'm using oil of olay cleansing cloths and i've learned to never sleep with makeup on. I've heard mederma works too and try to stay out of the sun. Seriously go to the drug store and look at the olay products, they worked for me!
    acne-fee is like proactive but cheaper you can get it anywhere and there is one kind that actuallygets rid of scars, check it out at a pharmacy or go to the website, im not sure what it is but type in acne-free ';google it'; and see what you get,
    Vitamin E oil works nicely and Cocoa butter will help. Its good to clean your skin well...several times a day. Its also important to remember that most good cleanings remove all the oil...and that your skin needs oil. So make sure that you moisturize with a non greasy moisturizer as well as cleaning well.
    vitamin E pure oil or cream alternating with aloe vera gel


    also evening primrose oil


    and to give elasticity back to your skin try olive oil
    Try dry skin brushing.


    And drink lots of water.


    I never had severe skin problems, but it sure has cleared up what I did have.


    Here's a link on dry skin brushing;


    http://healingtools.tripod.com/skinbrush鈥?/a>
    Drink plenty of water to rehydrate your skin
    Try mineral foundation.





    puritycosmetics.co.uk is a good brand.
    Proactive.

    What is the best treatment for burn scars?

    I have 13% burns on my arm and back, half of which were grafted. The burns are almost 6 months mature. I use scar massage, mederma, compression garments, and now cica care sheets. Does anyone have any other recommendations? How about for the donor sites? I was treated at Brooke Army Medical Center so I had the opportunity for the best care and garments but they dont have much information on scar creams and such.What is the best treatment for burn scars?
    sounds like your doing pretty much everything you can possible. the treatments your receiving and undertaking are all that i'm familiar with.What is the best treatment for burn scars?
    Scars After Skin Burning, Burn Scar Treatment, Burns Scars


    People who experience skin burning and their loved ones face many challenges on the road to recovery, not the least of which are understanding the recovery process and finding helpful resources. The treatment of burn patients is a highly specialized field of medicine that can be difficult to comprehend for people trying to cope with the trauma of a serious burn injury.





    ABOUT BURN INJURIES


    The severity of a burn depends on how hot the skin gets and how long the burn lasts. The location is also important, because skin varies in thickness, water and oil content, the amount of subcutaneous fat, and the number of blood vessels from one location in the body to another. The diagnosis of a burn injury is based on how deep the injury is.





    TREATMENT


    Short-term treatment of burns can include antibiotics, bandages, escharectomies, and pressure garments. Click here to learn more about short-term treatment methods. Skin grafts involve transplantation of skin from one area of the body to another. Some burns can be treated on an outpatient basis, while others require hospitalization.





    Choices about long term burn care depend on the severity of the burn injury as well as whether the patient suffered lung injury from inhaling smoke or chemicals and whether there were pre-existing medical problems.
    They have a cream at Wal-greens ,Kerr Drug,etc. for scars to help fade them.
    Try pure aloe. Also try vitamin E. I have a burn scar on my hand from 7 years ago. I used pure aloe and vitamin E. (switch off every other week) I still have a scar, but it's better than it was. Also stay out of the sun, it will burn easy and the scar shows up more with a tan or burn. Best of luck to you.

Is there any solution to this embarrassing problem, such as ways to clear out my skin?How can i get rid of the scars and dark spots on my bikini line?
    Apply coco butter there, as it is said to reduce scars. Or use Mederma Scar cream, found at the stores. Maybe buy body make up, it's kind of like cover up that you'd use on your face, but this is for your body. Be careful though, incase you can't use it down there, lol.

    Quit shaving, the fuzz will cover it up.......
    Those don't sound like scars. Are you sure they aren't ingrown hairs? You could go to a dermatologist and see if they can be removed. If you're sure they are scars, there's not much you can do except use a scar ';removal'; cream like Mederma, unless you want to get into lasers and expensive solutions.
    cocoa butter
    Wax the bikini area
    first get them waxed then start plucking at least the outside where the bathing suit doesnt hide anything. if you have scars use neosporin right when it cuts, or shea butter

When washing your back use a loofah, sponge or exfoliant to help remove any dead skin cells that may clog up pores.

    A woman's scars have never in any way affected my attraction for her...





    As long as your eyes look into mine with a sincere sparkle of mischief, love, humor, and intelligence...





    I wouldn't even notice scars on your arms...or if I did...I'd chalk it up to a childhood ';scrape'; you got into once, or some other unimportant situation that now doesn't exist because it's in the past...





    Besides...it's the inner thighs that are the most important...
    I just bought mederma for a scar on my face. The package says that it works on both old and new scars. I've also heard that pure vitamin E works also. good luck!
    You can't do a whole lot for old scars, but if you use cocoa butter a lot it will blend it in somewhat. Another good news is as you age and ';grow'; new skins, the scars will become less and less visible.


    P.S. I got a friend who used to cut himself, he hasn't done it for 7 years and the scars are hardly noticeable.
    Mederma, I think, will work on older scars as well as newer ones. It definitely lessened the scar I have on my nose.
    use neosporin
    id go to a skin specialist and ask..





    i played football and got tons of scars.. but they just kinda faded over time..





    but some stayed b/c they were big/ deep cuts..
    The best way is to go to a dermatologist and get them professionally fixed. Mederma works ok, but only helps a little bit, not that much. Dermatologists have special creams they can prescribe and treatments and things. I have scars on my knees from 5 years ago, but they look alot better now that I got help from a dermatologist.
    Bronzer and vitamin E
    use mederma and or neosporin and cover up!

    you could wear skin coloured tights


    or try bio oil its supposed to really help





    or maybe some concealer and foundation? however if you do decide to do this (and im not sure how successful it will be) use a foundation/concealer that are the right tone for your legs not your face as your face has a slightly different tone to your body... also make sure you apply really well so that it doesnt smear or smudge...

    I have acne scars as well and I even went for consultation to a plastic surgeons and although the treatment the provide is very effective, it doesn't actually remove them, it reduces the appearance of them, as a scar is something that you will always have even though some may fade so they are hard to see. Instead of opting for the surgery I decided to try Micro-Dermabrasion. I use the Nutra-Metics micro dermabrasion kit which I think is $89.00, I found this to be just as good if not better than one you can get a salon (which I have also tried). Although my scars haven't gone away they have faded so much that they are no longer red/purple in colour and I don't even have to put concealer over them! and you can't see them under my foundation. If you don't have the same results as me I would recommend you go for a consultation for plastic surgery and just see what they have to say. At the end of the day I am sure you still look gorgeous!!!

    Hi,





    Here is some information on Aloe Vera and Tea Tree which may be of some help to you.





    The watery gel from Aloe Vera plant is a highly effective natural cure against Acne. The enzyme-rich gel has very soothing anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. It can also be taken internally and helps clean up and detox the digestive tract. This in turn can help clear up the skin.





    Gel or juice of Aloe Vera is highly useful in fading of acne scars. You can grow Aloe Vera plant in your home and apply freshly taken pure Aloe Vera gel to your scar. Otherwise many branded cosmetic companies manufactures pure Aloe Vera gel, so you can choose the best cosmetic companies to get Aloe Vera gel.





    Vitamin A is also a natural and effective Acne cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.





    Vitamin E also helps in countering Acne. It is a natural antioxidant and beneficial for the skin.





    Oil is obtained from the Melaleuca alternifoliais tree from Australia. It is very effective against Acne as it contains bacteria-fighting substances called Terpenes. Acne is often caused by bacteria and the Terpenes either outright kill them or weaken them enough to be destroyed by protective antibodies. There are very little side effects from using Tea Tree Oil.





    For more information check out the website http://www.trustwilliam.com/en-GB/Ingred鈥?/a> . You'll see the ingredients are 99.9% Pure Aloe Vera Gel with 'Vitamins A,C %26amp; E' and with 'Tea Tree'.





    Hope this helps keep your acne %26amp; scars at bay!!

    What is the best base (containing silicon?) to cover up acne scars for under make up?

    I wear mineral make up, and have acne scars. The coverage from the make up itself is great, however, without a base the holes from the scars are much more visible. Now I use MAC prep+prime which contains some silicon I believe, however the scars are still visible. Does anyone know a great base that really fills up scars? Preferably containing silicon as I know that works on me. Thanks a bunch!What is the best base (containing silicon?) to cover up acne scars for under make up?

    You could try microdermabrasion at a local spa place, or also a chemical peal. Hopefully this would help to remove the dead skin cells and your skin would regrow healthy. Also there is just dermabrasion where they freeze the skin and like sand it off.(this is more harsh) These are non-surgical ways. Check them out they may work. Hope you get rid of it.What is the best and quickest way to get rid of scars?
    don't use mederma for scars. you have to use it like 2 times a day for like 6 weeks. it hasn't worked in my experience and is totally inconvienent.

    My skin tends to scar and blemish easily after I get a pimple. I've found that chances of me getting a blemish on my face decreases when I avoid popping my pimples. Other than that, getting rid of the blemish will take some time. I use a cleanser with salicylic acid and a good moisturizer and toner (I usually use clinique). In the mean time, I would just use a good concealer and/or foundation.





    This site, http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of鈥?/a> also has some good tips :).
    Getting acne once a month is probably because of hormones and your period. Make sure to wash your face regularly without soap. (Using soap will dry out your face.) Clean %26amp; Clear has a nice effect for the cheek area. Your biggest problem is popping and picking. No matter what remedy you find, if you do that you will ruin everything you started.


    It's okay to pop whitehead, but make sure to wash your face right after to avoid bacteria spreading. Drink lots of water whenever your period happens, if you know the regular date, drink lots of water a week before.

    How to get rid of acne scars?

    I'm 19 years old, I've had acne since I was a sophmore in high school. By now most of my acne is gone due to an acne free diet. I stopped using chemical products a long time ago and stick to home remedies. But the scars are still there on my cheeks. Is there a way I can get rid of the scars, or that can fade them?How to get rid of acne scars?
    Yes, there is a way that you can get rid of the scars and/or make them fade. I recommend AcneFree Scar Lotion. It works, but as many scar removal lotions do, it takes time, so be patient when you want to see results because you may not get them in a day or so. You'll probably see lighter scars by the end of one week. Trust me, it works, I, myself, use it. Hope this helps =)!!How to get rid of acne scars?

    If you are doing the natural thing, do what I do, apple cider vineager. Put it on a cotton ball and dab onto areas and let sit for 30 minutes then wash off.
    I eventually went to a certified aesthetician and had a micro laser peel. It is expensive over time - about 150 dollars per visit, but it works. It was described to me as being comparable to smoothing out wood floors. It resurfaces your face by taking off some of the old yucky top layers of skin.

    I have had good experiences with avocado and honey. I used it regularly for a couple of months and left it on for about 10-15 minutes and I have noticed a dramatic difference in my face, although it gets a little messy sometimes when cleaning up. If you are interested to try, what you do is mix a whole avocado and about a teaspoon honey together until it is like a paste and then you smear it over your face, wait and wash off. Now I have mild scars and it helped and also prevented future breakouts as well
    Honestly, the best treatment for acne scars is left to the professionals. Visit your Dermatologist ASAP. You'll be glad that you did. Check out this website for more information.

  • Is there a way to make scars from spots on your face and body heal faster/dissapear?

    I'm a boy so make up is out of the window :P any special creams or home remedies are well appreciated.Is there a way to make scars from spots on your face and body heal faster/dissapear?
    Yup, In my quest to remove some pigmentation spots I have tried just about ALL the scar remedies out there ( i.e Mederma, Bio Oil, Rosehip oil, fade out cream, 10% glycolic moisturizers, lemon juice, bright cream, Vitamin E cream, tend skin, Hirudoid Cream, etc)





    Nothing worked quick enough for my liking so I went to visit a dermatologist last week who prescribed Retino A 0.05% Cream %26amp; ESLITE Cream (it's a cream containing hydroquinone, octinoxate %26amp; oxybenzone.)





    I apply the ESLITE in the morning %26amp; the Retino A in the evenings, followed by cetaphil moisturizer as the creams dry my skin out badly.





    I also avoid exposure to the sun (wear an SPF 30 sunscreen if you can't cover the area)





    Anyway after a week I can already see a marked improvement so am hopeful this will finally work in removing my scars, the expectation the dermatologist set was an improvement of 20% after 2 weeks then follow that with a 50% solution glycolic peel or TCA peel.





    Also she advised to stop exfoliating the area for a while as I was exfoliating 3 times a week %26amp; it was actually aggravating my scars.





    Anyway so far though it's early days I'm more than happy with the results as after only a week I can already see visible improvements which has never happened with the other treatments I tried.Is there a way to make scars from spots on your face and body heal faster/dissapear?
    Relax. Stress can be a major problem when blemishes are involved. Once your hormones act up, it can show on your face. Although life isn't always a guaranteed free ride, take some time out for yourself. Exercise, meditation, you name it. Control your stress level and you can control your breakouts.





    What's good in your body can show on your face. Eating a balance meal can help greatly, especially foods that detoxify your body. Also, water can become nature's cure. Try to get 8 glasses of water in, and within days you'll notice clearer looking skin.





    If you have oily skin, try using a daily scrub to exfoliate your skin. Recommended products are St. Ives Apricot Scrub (there are different types, and any of them would work) and Aveno face scrub for blackheads.





    Using an astringent can help, but some of them can leave a burning sensation. A very gentle astringent that鈥檚 all natural and cost efficient is Witch Hazel. Just put some on a cotton ball and rub gently onto your skin.





    Some say using a face mask twice a month works, but best results have been found using one twice a week. Find a face mask that shrinks pores or detoxifies your face. Recommended products are St. Ives Firming Mask, Olay Deep Cleansing Clay Mask, and Andrea's Face Spa (comes in packets).





    If your face needs help getting over a red blotchy spell, trying putting Aloe Vera on. Its a natural moisturizer and protects your skin (which is why its highly recommended for minor cuts and burns). Also, putting non-medicated Calamine Lotion on blemishes can help dry up the excess oils and make them go away faster. Best time to put it on is at night.





    Most importantly, always use a moisturizer with sunscreen in it. It helps protect your face from dryness and the sun. A recommended product is Aveno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15. Wearing makeup with built in SPF 15 is also a plus.





    Besides moisturizers, there are also lotions that help even out skin tone, which is a bonus to overcoming scars and dark blemishes. A good lotion that helps keep skin soft and even is Cocoa Butter lotion. Its a natural remedy to any part of your body, and is especially known to cure stretch marks and ';crowsfeet.'; Cocoa Butter is a natural key in keeping redness out and radiant skin in.





    Some information which gives you an overall idea about spots and the scars :)x good luck!
    -Use a gentle face scrub everyday to remove the scar tissue. Similarily, use a body scrub for scars on your body.


    -Lemon juice helps lighten up the scars


    -Mederma gel (heard it works really well), you can find this at the pharmacy or possible the drugstore.

    How long will it take for scars to fade?

    I have some small scars on my face from blackheads I squeezed. They are quite recent and Im not sure if they are scars, they may just need some more time to heal. How long will they take to fade and is there anything to use to help them heal faster?How long will it take for scars to fade?
    first of all, never squeeze blackheads. Try to steam you blackheads area with soft cloth by putting it in warm water. Pores will open, then rub the cloth all over your face. You'll see the difference. Then use scrabber. Remeber, blackheads needs regular caring. It does not go away permanently. Use moisturiser after scrabbing. Squezzing it will make your skin damged permanently. Now, for the scars, use lemon juice. Its acidic, so it may burn for moment. Bur it'll reduce your scars quickly. Also, its useful for pimples, pigmentation. Apply it at night and wash it off in the morning will also help. U can use it for 15 mins daily. But dont go outside after using lemon juice. It'll darken ur skin. Take careHow long will it take for scars to fade?
    depends, mostiureise and it will be sooner

    Is it normal for scars to be a light brown colour?

    I have eczema and it always leaves scars if it's bad. All the people I know have white scars but mine always go a light browny colour. I really, really hate it because whenever I go swimming it makes my eczema play up so I have to pay the price with permanent dark marks and sore skin for about a month. I LOVE to swim and am on our area's team! Is it normal for scars to go dark? It's also not just eczema scars but any other cuts or scrapes I've had.Is it normal for scars to be a light brown colour?
    They probably have a dark color because they are exposed to the sun when they are fresh, young scars. Make sure you put sunscreen on them all the time for at least the first year of having a new scar. Scars fade over time, but if they have gotten sunburned, they may never fade. Try some mederma, you can get it any drugstore, but you have to apply it like 4 times a day. For my knee surgery scars I use a silicon scar patch. It works great. They can be a little pricey, but they last forever and are reuseable. Take a look at this website www.rejuveness.com. Also neosporin makes some smaller ones that you can get at any drugstore in the first aid isle. They are also cheaper.

    How much does it cost to get surgery to fade acne scars, stretch marks or freckles?

    What's the average cost? Please someone give me a legitimate answer and not some ';use bodyoil advice' I've tried that and it doesn't help me. How much does the laser surgery cost?How much does it cost to get surgery to fade acne scars, stretch marks or freckles?
    Laser treatment costs around $200-$400 per consultation (asuming you live in one of the big cities in the US) and it usually takes 3-4 treatments.





    The area of which you want to get treatment (the back, sholders, cheeks) and how bad your acne scars are makes a big difference.





    Before diving into laser I would also recommend a scar kit like the one from Zenmed. Its all natural and costs the fraction of laser. Best of all it comes with a 60 day guarantee so very little to loose :

  • How do you remove scars caused by needles?

    Hi, once upon a time i injected cocaine for about 4 months straight. Its been over a year since the last time i used a needle however i have a very embarrassing scar about pea sized on my arm.

Is there any answers to my small, but very frustrating problem?How do you remove scars caused by needles?
    Cocoa butter.How do you remove scars caused by needles?
    since it bothers you so much... go to a dermatologist and make dermabrassion treatment, or plastic surgery is the only way
    i have alot of scars as well, not for the same reason but thats beside the point, anyway i know from experience that if you give it time it will fade, probably to the point that you won't even notice it at all, but untill then if someone asks you just tell them you donate blood, they put the needle in the same spots as someone would if they were injecting drugs, so nobody will know the difference

    cocoa butter.
    Try BIO OIl, it is meant to get rid of scars. Also, you may want to go talk to your doctor and ask about something that might get rid of the scars. This happened to me, and I went to the doctor and they gave me cream to put on it, and in a couple of weeks they went away. Hope this helps!
    Try bio oil its supposed to be good for scars and uneven skin tone, but may take a while to see any effects.
    bio oil is RUBBISH.


    dont waste your money on that, i was using it for over a year on my scars, and nothing has changed at all.
