How can i get rid of dark ugly scars on my skin,any tips?
I have an ugly dark scar near my bikini line that is VERY unflattering and i was wondering if there was any home remedies or inexpensive names of drug store ointments i could use te get rid of it..., PLEASE HELP. Thanks.|||This last issue of Glamour, April, says to get rid of dark circles you should use a slice of potatoes. Maybe that can help you too..|||I too have this problem.Mine is a result of burning with boiling hot water.I;v tried everything but with no success.I am now going to try Bio oil..just thought id let u know u%26#039;r not alone gal!
How to get rid of scars made by cutting yourself?
I cut myself two nights ago and I need to get rid of the cuts! What can I do I need to do it by at least tomorrow pleasee help im so scared and i am never gonna cut again!|||You can buy bio oil. But it takes up to three months for the scars to go away completely, and you must put it on two times daily. Sorry, but there%26#039;s no way to make scars vanish by the snap of your fingers. I wish there was, though. I%26#039;m glad you%26#039;ve decided to never cut again. For the people who have a real problem with self-mutilation, they%26#039;re usually stereotyped as %26quot;emo%26quot; and attention-starved.|||If the cut is still healing there isn%26#039;t much you can do besides neosporin etc.|||I%26#039;m sorry but there%26#039;s no way to get rid of the cuts. Even after they heal, the scars won%26#039;t go away.
How do I get my scars to stay?
This is kinda weird, cuz everyone else is obsessed with getting their scars to disappear, but I have 5 surgical scars, and I love them all. They remind me that I am tough, and the first two I got remind me simply of how lucky I am to be alive.
I got my second 3 two weeks ago, and I want to make sure they don%26#039;t disappear. Because they%26#039;re surgical, they won%26#039;t, right? If there is the possibility they will, are there any tips to make sure they don%26#039;t?|||no, they%26#039;ll probably be with yo forever until you decide it%26#039;s time to go; if you ever do. The only thing possible is to slice them open every once in a while... but that sounds too emo. Try tattoing them even if they do go away, just to remember! (^.^)|||Besides cutting them or scratching the surface of them every so often, which sounds really weird. I would just apply some tanner to the scars so that they stay dark.|||no, surgical scars almost always stay youll be fine have you ever thought of getting a tatoo over them to make it cuter and more memorable

How can I make acne scars go or not appear as much?
I use Bio-Oil and it does what it says. It turns the scars so they aren%26#039;t as visible. The purple colour of them has gone but the marks are still there. Does anybody know what I can do to make them disappear or not look as bad? Any products you have used? My scars aren%26#039;t that noticable so don%26#039;t say I need surgery please. It just gets me down that they are there. Thanks in advance.|||Scar gel or Vitamin E oil. Drugstore for the gel and Vitamin E at a vitamin shop.
What is the quickest and least expensive way to get rid of scars?
I know it%26#039;s gross but I had several boils on my buttocks. They were infected and are healing now but are leaving discolored, large like pot marks. I know I shouldn%26#039;t care that much about the skin on my behind but I want the nice, smooth baby butt that I had! Does Mederma help or what about those bandaid looking things? What kind of skin regime should I do? If I can save some money, could micorodermabrasion help or something like that?|||Mederma worked wonders for me, but I used it on surgical scars. I have used it on other things too like cuts and scrapes and it has worked well, so I%26#039;d have to say either mederma or possibly microdermabrasion may work for you too! Its just hard to say exactly what to use without being able to see it. If you try those things (and give it time!) and nothing works, consult a dermatologist. They have a lot of good ideas for this type of thing, some more affordable than others ;)|||Mederma or Vitamin E oil should do the trick.|||To prevent stretch marks and scars effectively use cocoa butter or a mixture of olive oil and herbs. You can find more cheap and natural remedies for stretch marks and scars at
http://www.wellnesstalk.org/stretchmarks鈥?/a>|||Your best bet would be either aloe vera, vitamin E, or cocoa butter.
Next time u get a boil, just put toothpaste on it and it will go away overnight.|||Try taking Vitamin E 400 IU twice daily and apply Vitamin E cream to the scars daily. Also take MSM 1-2 grams 4x daily and apply the MSM cream to the scars 2x daily.
This has helped some people, but no guarantees!|||Mederma is suppose to decrease the look of the scars. Another option is plastic surgery but that can cost alot of money depending on how much work needs to be done. I would try the mederma used every day after a shower and see how it works.|||i dont no about the stuff u asked but putting coconut oil on them lighten the marks till they finally dissapear.|||From what you describe, it sounds like you might be suffering from Hidradenitis Suppurativa.

How do you get rid of a whole bunch of highly noticeable scars on your legs?
I get bit by mosquitoes then they turn right to purple scars. School is starting soon and I don%26#039;t want to walk around with a bunch of purple scars on my legs.|||Cocoa butter doesn%26#039;t work, but they sell something in stores I think it is called scars or use bleaching cream.|||Buy pure honey from a local bee farmer.

How do I find a qualified cosmetic surgeon to remove my acne scars?
I have severe acne scarring and am looking into having laser resurfacing done on my skin. I have tried looking on the internet to find info about Sacramento County doctors and have been unsuccessful. The amount of information out there is overwhelming and I%26#039;m not sure how to filter through it. I am looking for recommendations, ideas, suggestions, opinions, anything that will help.

If I used regular scar removing cream on the acne scars on my face would it work to remove them?
I%26#039;ve recently gotten my breakouts to stop, making my acne scars more visible. I can mostly cover them up with makeup but i%26#039;d rather just get rid of the scars. So if I used regular scar removing cream (like the stuff you can get at a drug store) would it help to remove (or lighten) my scars?
By the way I used tree oil mixed with witch hazel, it got rid of my breakouts within a few days.|||I think they could help but I also think there is a difference in a scar from a surgry on your knee and an acne scar.

Elicina Skin Renewal Cream is 80% Chilean snail secretion and does not contain colourings or fragrance
Chilean farmers bred snails for export to the French food market. The snail handlers began to notice how soft their hands had become and that minor cuts healed without infection or scarring.
A scientific study of the Chilean snail secretion confirmed that it contained an extraordinary combination of natural substances that prove beneficial to the healing of human skin.
Fifteen years later Elicina was patented by the World Organisation of Patents in Geneva and was launched on to the South American cosmetic market in 1995.

basicly i just want a comfortable peacful nvironment where ppl suffering from acne can be comfortable....|||Did you try Retin-A from a dermatologist? I%26#039;ve had wonderful results with this. And it slowly peals off the layers of your skin so scarring disappears. The doctor will determine which strength works the best for your skin type. Good luck!|||Well it may be expensive, but going to a dermatologist would be well worth your money. The Retin-A is very good for acne and the scaring that it may cause. I am not sure how old you are but there is also a lot of places that do the Medical Credit card now through Capital One. I did it for my daughters braces. And I am about to go to a Med Spa and get laser hair removal and the laser treatment for my face %26amp; do it all on the credit card program. It is 0% interest for 12 months right now. I am NOT a fan of debt, but sometimes we are the last ones to do anything for ourselves and we never seem to find the extra $$. So just a thought. Start of with the Retin-A, and if you still are not happy then think abou the laser treatments, or chemical peels. However IF you are dark complexion those are not going to work, it changes the pigmentation in your skin and will cause light spots.|||OK lets be real, acne%26#039;s a b**** and it%26#039;s the worst thing to get over but its not impossible. The best thing out there for it right now is Acutane, but, it is not for everyone that%26#039;s why it is only obtained by a Dr%26#039;s prespription. Some people tend to be allergic to the medicine, for a few percentage it does not work for, but usually it does, for everyone, even though after you stop using it the acne comes back, like with every other medicine after the treatment is over. It is really harsh on your body though, for women they can%26#039;t take contraceptives or have kids due to some serious problems that can occur while taking it, other people experience horrible peeling and dryness.
Apart from all this, i used to have acne, apparently not bad enough for Acutane (according to my dermatologist) but it was still bad (at least i thought it was), so i was recommended this over the counter medicine called %26quot;Nature%26#039;s Cure%26quot;. They have two medicines, one formulated for men, and another for women, and among these they have the topical creams and face washes as well as pills that work from the inside out. I personally tried the cream and face wash. Since i started using it i have yet gotten another pimple, seriously, my face is progressing miraculously, alot of the blemishes are gone, almost all. Smooth skin, it does dry it a little bit but barely, everyone%26#039;s complimented on it. A few more weeks and my face will be completely clear. To help with this i also get facials done, everyonce in a while to help with the deep cleaning, which helps alot to remove stubborn clogs and blackheads and so forth.
I know not all of these over the counter medicines work for everyone, like myself that i%26#039;ve tried Proactive and Murad and all those things and i actually got my face worse due to them. But this one worked, see if you can find it in a neighborhood pharmacy or drugstore, or supermarket (which some of them also sell them), or online in their website.
About a diet, the main cause of acne is not your diet, eating chocolate or drinking too much soda, it%26#039;s an old wife%26#039;s tale, BUT a good diet will prevent excess oils in the skin which will clog pores and cause breakouts.
The main cause of acne are your body%26#039;s hormones, we can%26#039;t fix those with a change in diet. For me i go to the gym about 5 days a week, and excercise, this helps your metabolism break fatty acids that may affect your hormone production, as well as providing an overall well being for the body and get you nice and fit, a little blood to the old pump is sometimes the best remedy for current health problems as well as future undeveloped ones.
Stress is another factor that people a lot of the time don%26#039;t consider, it does affect your acne because too much stress will trigger hormone production in the body and well you know the rest. Try to take life easily, i know sometimes it%26#039;s hard but you gotta try, for my stress, excercise wipes it all out, and it usually does for a lot of people so think about it.
Well i hope this helps you and good luck with what ever you end up trying.|||Wash would be good. pick the zit early but keep washing|||I struggled with acne for years and I finally found the solution that works for me.

There are times when acne can end up with scars, especially on the face. To opt for a cosmetic procedure, ensure that your face is free of active acnes and since this procedure varies from case to case, a consultation with your dermatologist and/or your cosmetic surgeon will help as he will be able to provide you with the options which will suit you best.
Removal of acne scars is a fine and delicate procedure and might just require a combination of procedures which are mentioned below. Do in depth research of the cosmetic surgeon whom you wish to get operated by. Make sure all the questions you have, are answered before you take the final step, such as what is his status in the field he specializes? Judge the results by viewing before and after photographs of previous cases as well as refer the testimonials of previous patients. These and many more queries that you may harbor must be duly solved before you finalize the procedure for your acne scars.
Tip: Never consider clinics who advertise cheap treatments. More often than not, these clinics employ less experienced people and even the sanitation is compromised. Even though you will pay less and get the treatment done, you will invariably have to spend extra money after you return on surgeries to mend their mistakes.Following are a list of procedures employed to remove acne scars:
1. Dermabrasion
2. Subcision
3. Chemical Peels
4. Punch Techniques
5. Laser Resurfacing
6. Augmentation

I use it on my scars every day until they go away.|||Use Vitamin E to Reduce Scars
* Buy vitamin E in oil or capsule form. If you choose capsule form, you will need a sterile pin as well as the capsule, to poke the capsule and expel some of th vitamin E oil.
* Clean the scar or wound area very carefully. Vitamin E is not antibacterial or anti-fungal. If fungus or bacteria is on the area where the scar or wound is located, unless you clean it properly, the vitamin E oil may trap the bacteria and provide fertile breeding grounds for an infection.
* Expel some oil onto a cotton swab. If you use the vitamin E capsule, poke the outer shell of the capsule and squeeze the oil onto the cotton swab. Be careful not to touch the oil directly with your hands, or to spill the oil on clothing or upholstery.
* Dab the vitamin E oil on the scar or wound. Lightly coat the area with the vitamin E oil. Do not rub the oil in; you want to dab carefully.
* Cover the area with a light layer of gauze if you are concerned about the vitamin E oil getting on fabric, in eyes, or on upholstery. Do not use a bandage over the vitamin E oil; this can trap bacteria or fungus as well.
* Keep the vitamin E oil on the scar or wound for at least 4-5 hours before washing the area. Wash the area after 8 hours, to remove trapped bacteria or fungus.
* Apply vitamin E to the scar at least once a day for a few weeks, or until the scar has healed. you may need to apply vitamin E oil for one to two months for best results.|||The natural ways to remove scars are easy and safe.

How do I reduce the effects of scars from eczema?
I%26#039;m 19 years old and have had eczema since I was roughly 15. It started just on my stomach cause of the belts I wore, and then on my arms, but that was nothing until this past year. I have it bad on my arms, stomach, half my back, upper thighs, chest, and neck. And I am also half hispanic, so I scar very easily. They aren%26#039;t raised scars or anything, but just dark marks. And they stay, for years. Lotions for dry skin don%26#039;t work, I know that. But even if I do control my eczema, the scars from it will last for a long time. Can anyone relate and possibly know any way to help me with my scars, or eczema? I%26#039;m running out of options! I feel like a leper here!|||HI Amber
Here are some ideas to start the healing process.
Cause
Eczema is often called Dermatitis, and may be a symptom of an omega-3 fatty acid deficiency. Eczema can be due to allergies, allergies secondary to digestive disorders such as hydrochloric acid deficiency, rashes secondary to immune diseases, genetic metabolic disorders, and/or nutritional deficiencies, especially of niacin (vitamin B3) and B6, as well as other B vitamins.
To minimize your risk of developing eczema, avoid irritating substances, wear natural nonirritating materials, use soothing ointments, and check to see if dietary, nutritional, and/or and allergy-causing factors need to be considered.
--------------------------------------鈥?br>
Natural Cures
Aromatherapy: Bergamot, chamomile, lavender, melissa, neroli, eucalyptus, geranium, and/or juniper can help speed healing and relief of symptoms when applied topically to the affected areas.
Diet: Eat an organic, whole foods diet and avoid potentially allergy-causing foods, especially sugar, wheat, milk, and dairy products, including yogurt. Also avoid excess consumption of fruit, especially citrus and sour, as these foods may aggravate symptoms.
Flower Essences: Rescue Remedy庐 for accompanying stress, and Rescue Remedy Cream庐 on the affected areas.
Herbs: Herbal remedies such as cleavers, nettle, yellowdock, or red clover tea or tinctures may be very effective. They are often combined with relaxing herbs such as chamomile, linden flowers, or skullcap. One combination would be equal parts of cleavers, nettle, and chamomile drunk as an infusion three times a day. A stronger mixture combines the tinctures of figwort, burdock, and cleavers in equal parts; take one teaspoon of this mixture three times a day.
To alleviate itching, bathe affected areas of your body with lukewarm or cold chickweed infusion. For cracked, dry, or painful skin, use a salve made from calendula flowers and St. John`s wort leaves.
Goldenseal applied externally may also be helpful.
Homeopathy:Dulcamara, Rhus tox., Sulfur, Arsen alb., and Graphites, taken alone or in combination with each other can help speed healing. Petroleum and Psorinum are also effective homeopathic remedies, but must be taken alone.
Hydrotherapy: Hydrotherapy is the application of water, ice, steam and hot and cold temperatures to maintain and restore health. Treatments include full body immersion, steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation and the application of hot and/or cold compresses. Hydrotherapy is effective for treating a wide range of conditions and can easily be used in the home as part of a self-care program. Many Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists and Day Spas use Hydrotherapy as part of treatment. I suggest several at-home hydrotherapy treatments.
Juice Therapy: The following juice combinations can help speed healing: black currant and red grapes; carrot, beet, spinach, cucumber, and parsley; and wheat grass juice.
Nutritional Supplementation: Vitamin A and GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), an omega-6 essential fatty acid found in high quantities in evening primrose oil, have both been shown to improve the symptoms of eczema. Vitamin E. Other useful supplements for preventing and reversing eczema include vitamin B complex, vitamin B6, vitamin E, magnesium, and zinc.
Topical Treatment: Apply evening primrose oil directly to cracked and sore areas of the skin. A topical paste made from ginkgo and licorice root extract has also been shown to improve eczema symptoms.
Alternative Professional Care
If your symptoms persist despite the above measures, seek the help of a qualified health professional. The following professional care therapies have all been shown to be useful for treating and relieving the symptoms of eczema: Acupuncture, Ayurveda, Biofeedback Training, Bodywork (Acupressure, Shiatsu, Reflexology), Detoxification Therapy, Energy Medicine (Light Beam Generator, Ondamed, Photon Stimulator), Environmental Medicine, Hypnotherapy, Magnetic Field Therapy (North Pole Magnetic Energy Application), Mind/Body Medicine, Naturopathic Medicine, Orthomolecular Medicine, Osteopathy, and Oxygen Therapy

|||Hi Amber,
I%26#039;ve had eczema as long as I can remember, and I although I still search for a permanent cure, I have found ways to deal with the condition%26#039;s causes and effects. Although some people here like to cut and paste the results of searches, what you asked for was help with the effects of scars (and the eczema).
First of all, you%26#039;re not a leper! Eczema affects thousands of people. The degree to which people are afflicted varies, and much research is being to address this hidden epidemic, but many experts agree; there are environmental, diet and immunological factors involved. Get these under control and your condition could improve (or perhaps totally clear up).
To minimize scars I can suggest:
First, don%26#039;t scratch. Sounds silly doesn%26#039;t it? I know, I know, if it didn%26#039;t itch so damm much I wouldn%26#039;t scratch, but what can I do? Well, first cut your fingernails - you%26#039;ll reduce the damage.
Second, try to stay hydrated - drink lots of water (less caffeine and soda) to keep your skin from drying out.
Third, moisturizers are good, but %26#039;hydrating%26#039; lotions are better. Even if you slather yourself in lotion and petroleum neither of those things will seal in ANY moisture if you%26#039;re dry as a bone. I normally take a shower (COLD not hot! I know the hot feels great, but it%26#039;ll dry you out and make your more miserable after wards). Pat dry and then apply any lotions or creams to seal the moisture in. I find that SARNA is great to stop itching and Ami Lactin will turn ashy skin soft. Dead Sea Salts work great in the shower (but sting on open cuts).
Fourth, scar gels, coca butter, ami lactin, and exfoliation%26#039;s can reduce the appearance of scars. The peels and exfoliations may not be good for your skin, but the scars will fade. I%26#039;m Filipino and I have a darker skin tone, so I know how the lightening of patches of skin can be noticeable.
A lot of sun has always helped me also! Some people do UV booths. I%26#039;m moving to a warmer, ocean side climate where my skin is normally better.
There are a lot of things you can do, don%26#039;t give up hope! They%26#039;re finding more treatments all the time as people speak up about eczema. If you can get your symptoms under control you can get your scars taken care of and improve your quality of life.
Good luck!|||Have you tried cocoa butter? I found that the cocoa butter sticks work best.|||I am convinced that your skin conditions and subsequently the scars which the outbreaks leave behind has something to do with an immune deficiency. I think it can be traced back to the vaccines you were given when you were a baby and a child.
Unfortunately, there is not much you can do about it except go to the dermatologist.
Eventually, you may need courses of dermabrasion or laser surgery (which I heard does not help much). Dermabrasion I heard works the best but it is a thousand or more dollars and the down time is a couple of weeks until your new skin grows back.
I don%26#039;t know what to tell you since you have a serious skin condition and products and treatments may only exacerbate the problem.
All I can tell you is that the best thing to use is regular vaseline.
Petrolium jelly not only helps minimize scars, but alleves your skin and sooths it.
Sorry you are afflicted with this, I have my own scars from my skin conditions, so does my brother. And it sucks. best thing to do is take it easy, keep the vaseline on it and don%26#039;t worry about it too much. ok?|||have you tried vitamine e oil i have seen it reduce pretty serious burn scars|||If you have such persistent and widely spread symptoms you definitely need to visit a specialized doctor, and as soon as possible.

How can I make these scars go away faster?
I have a ton of cuts on my right leg and one on my left forearm from months ago. I really need them gone fast, I don%26#039;t have mederma or anything that I know of. The one on my forearm is over 2 months old, and it%26#039;s extremely visible. For all of the scars, there%26#039;s no bump or scab or a raise or anything, you can just see the lines. Is there something I can do to make them go away? They have to be invisible.|||Unfortunatley, scars don%26#039;t simply disappear. Once they%26#039;re there, you can%26#039;t get rid of them entirely. If there was a product on the market that could do that, we would be using the hell out of it. The fact that the scars are several months old prevents most of the products on the market from having much benefit. If they were early scars, silicone sheeting or simply paper medical adhesive tape helps to significantly reduce the scars. If all you see are thin, white lines, that is probably the best result you%26#039;re going to get.
If you want to try a product, the best one on the market is product called scarfade. We prescribe it to our pediatric patients who undergo cleft lip repairs. It will reduce scars to some degree, but won%26#039;t make them disappear entirely. It works better than Mederma, which hasn%26#039;t shown much objective scar improvement in the studies I%26#039;ve read.
If they have to be invisible, the best approach would be to find a makeup to cover them up.

I%26#039;m trying to do some photography of close-up scars, so is there anyway to make them look as real as any other pic on photobucket?|||Dunno...but I Iike your hat.|||Yea. well first you need to be ready for pain, then you go on a big rock wall and hope for the WORST lol. i have no clue lol sorry plz rate me best answer|||i made one for halloween.
I used red nail polish, green eye shadow over it...to make it look bruised. Then green eye liner on both sides of the scar, then smudge.|||umm yes you can do it with make up...thats how they do it in movies...|||You can use wax, softened by heat, formed on wax paper. or white glue, with a little color added, and allowed to dry, forming the scar as it dries.
For closeups, you need good scars, so practice them first for a few days, and than shoot.|||Your answer is liquid Latex! It works wonders. I use it every Halloween to make gory make up. And I%26#039;ve won numerous costume contests. Al you ready have to do is on a non-stick surface, using the latex shape the form you want. It will take awhile to do so. You need to layer the latex; drying in between. When it%26#039;s finished using yet more latex glue it to your skin. Then use face paints and make up to bring it to life!|||well,
you can get reallly dark red blussh, put that one first and make shure its really dark.. then you can put a sortof purplish blackiish eyeshadow on but make shure a bit of the red is showing..
i did it one year for a halloweeen party (everyone thought it was real)|||Buy some fake wounds that you can attach on your face at a party shop near you.|||Use eyeshadow in black, pinks, reds and browns...it might not be so good for closeups though....|||use rubber cement. Apply it and let it dry , then roll the skin- it will stick together looking like a healed scar. Apply makeup and you can make it look any way you want|||also try pushing the skin together and using super glue|||im not sure how to make scars other than getting the makeup they use at stores...
but you can make very believable bruises with pencil. just a regular writing number 2 pencil.

How long do chicken pox scars take to go away? Is there any way to get rid of them faster?
My daughter has had them and is feeling horrible because of the all the marks they have left...|||Scars will likely never go away. I still have a lot of them from when I had the chicken pox.....25 years ago. You might try Malderma (I think that%26#039;s the name of it.....can%26#039;t remember right now) or some other scar therapy for them.
If you%26#039;re talking scabs from the sores, it%26#039;ll probably take a couple of weeks for those to go away. Have her wear long pants and long sleeved shirts to cover most of them if your daughter is that uncomfortable.|||they will never go away,,much like shelly i also have them on my forehead i have 2,,and well i got the chicken pox wen i was 3,,im 17 now and they are still there,,,sorry for your daughter|||The redness takes a long time to go down. The only ones that will stay will be ones that were scratched off...they%26#039;ll eventually turn white and be mostly unnoticeable.
You can keep at her skin with an oatmeal lotion like Aveeno, or something with Vitamin E in it.|||If she scratched them and now they are pits in her skin, then they may never completely go. I would imagine though, that its just the mark left when the scab falls off that you mean, rather than %26quot;scar%26quot;? If so, it may take a few weeks to not be noticeable. If the skin is not broken, you could use Aloe Vera on them. Its harmless, but an absolute gem with healing and scars. We had a huge plant of it in our garden in NZ and it was fine to just break off a leaf-tip and use the clear goo inside it for scratches, scars, rashes, all sorts really, just to aid the healing process.|||There are different types of cream that may reduce the appearance of the scars, Mederma, is a good brand. If you go to this website http://www.mederma.com/ , you can get a coupon. No matter what all scars will not completely fade away. I am 21 years old and still have a chicken pox scar on my face from when I was four.|||i have one on my forehead. its been there since i was 5.im 10-20 years of age. i%26#039;ve heard of some kind of medicine(you%26#039;ll have to ask your child%26#039;s ddoctor. ) i like mine. w/out it i would look wierd.but if its a lot and they look wierd, then ask her doc right away if shes tired of them.

How can I remove the scars from my legs?
I%26#039;ve got scars on my legs from shaving incidents and such,
and I was just wondering if there was a cream out there or something that could help me remove them.
I have really long legs, but I hate showing them with the scars on them, so if there are any creams or lotions that could help, please let me know!
Oh, and keep in mind, that these such creams and lotions cannot be too expensive.
THANK YOU!|||any kind of body lotion with vitamin E. cost is about $5 @ walmart or walgreens or target! just apply it before u go to bed %26amp; when u wake up everyday. it helped my scars fade!|||bio-oil

What is the quickest and least expensive way to get rid of scars?
I know it%26#039;s gross but I had several boils on my buttocks. They were infected and are healing now but are leaving discolored, large like pot marks. I know I shouldn%26#039;t care that much about the skin on my behind but I want the nice, smooth baby butt that I had! Does Mederma help or what about those bandaid looking things? What kind of skin regime should I do? If I can save some money, could micorodermabrasion help or something like that?|||Mederma worked wonders for me, but I used it on surgical scars. I have used it on other things too like cuts and scrapes and it has worked well, so I%26#039;d have to say either mederma or possibly microdermabrasion may work for you too! Its just hard to say exactly what to use without being able to see it. If you try those things (and give it time!) and nothing works, consult a dermatologist. They have a lot of good ideas for this type of thing, some more affordable than others ;)|||Mederma or Vitamin E oil should do the trick.|||To prevent stretch marks and scars effectively use cocoa butter or a mixture of olive oil and herbs. You can find more cheap and natural remedies for stretch marks and scars at
http://www.wellnesstalk.org/stretchmarks鈥?/a>|||Your best bet would be either aloe vera, vitamin E, or cocoa butter.
Next time u get a boil, just put toothpaste on it and it will go away overnight.|||Try taking Vitamin E 400 IU twice daily and apply Vitamin E cream to the scars daily. Also take MSM 1-2 grams 4x daily and apply the MSM cream to the scars 2x daily.
This has helped some people, but no guarantees!|||Mederma is suppose to decrease the look of the scars. Another option is plastic surgery but that can cost alot of money depending on how much work needs to be done. I would try the mederma used every day after a shower and see how it works.|||i dont no about the stuff u asked but putting coconut oil on them lighten the marks till they finally dissapear.|||From what you describe, it sounds like you might be suffering from Hidradenitis Suppurativa. You can check out http://www.hs-usa.org to see if anything sounds/looks familar.

What is the best product for reducing scars during healing?
My wife had a tummy tuck and breast lift three weeks ago. The doctor (in Colombia) has been using laser treatment to reduce scarring. Now that she is coming back home are there any good products for reducing cosmetic surgery scars? I just saw an ad on TV for Mederma. Has anyone used that or some other product? Were they useful?|||Yes, I have used this product. I have had some scars on my wrists and it took it right away. You have to rub it in real good until it is almost dry. I talked to the pharmacist and we compared the Mederma to the Walgreen%26#039;s brand and it seems the essential part of the whole cure is the %26quot;onion bulb oil%26quot; or something like that-onion something... look on the package.
I got Mederma at first and then switched to the generic to save money. worked the same.
Just make sure it is applied all the time. Several times a day and before bed.|||neosporin has a scar formula now..im sure its good, also an old trick is to use a hemoriod cream like prep-h...|||Mederma is great to reduce scarring, and YES it works very well! My sister%26#039;s fiance came back from the Marines last fall from Iraq after being injured by a roadside bomb. He was left with major injuries to his right arm and hand... he nearly lost it. He%26#039;s been using Mederma about 2-3 times a day ever since he got back... the healing has been tremendous and the scarring very minimal! I would definitely recommend that your wife use this product.|||Hello..I fully understand her situation and I passed through something similar a couple months ago. Personally,I tried some too advertised scar reducing/removing creams/gels..Well,after consulting with my plastic surgeon I finally got the best remedy,it%26#039;s called Zeraderm ultra scar gel,which contains special sylicons,SPF 15,Vitamins, coenzyme Q10..It workd perfect and I allow myself to recommend it to your wife!!

How long does it take for Eczema scars disappear?
I%26#039;ve had eczema scars all over my legs for about 4 months now and they aren%26#039;t looking any better. Can anyone tell me how long it%26#039;ll take for them to at least fade?|||Hi,
I have been helping a friend get rid of his psoriasis鈥?on his skin, it covers about 2 square feet of his arms and hands.
He has been spraying on 2.5 PH water for about a month now, and it is working. He is also drinking 9.5 PH water. His wife has MS, and is also drinking the 9.5 PH alkaline water, and is doing much better.
You can get free alkaline water - place a wanted add on http://craigslist.com
Here is a demo video to watch for the eczema cure as seen in Japan. Sorry but the hospitals in the United States and Europe are not this advanced at this time.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxLW-HKgQ鈥?/a>
Alergies to food include shellfish, garlic, and others. Stop eating things like cheese, then milk products, then anything brewed (beer, yogurt, breads made with yeast). When it goes away, then you have some idea of what you should stop eating.
Or use the process developed in Japan, and eat what you want to.
Good Luck !|||%26quot;One of the benefits of fish oil is its ability to fight eczema. Eczema is a condition of the skin that causes redness and itching and flaking. It鈥檚 not comfortable to say the least.Fortunately, fish oil has been able to help many of the people suffering from eczema by reducing the redness and swelling and alleviating the itching.%26quot;

What would you think if you saw scars from self inflicted cuts on someone?
Would you be scared of that person? Would you ask them about it? I have some scars on my arms from a bad time in my life a few years ago. It%26#039;s really obvious what they%26#039;re from. Usually I wear long sleeves, but when I don%26#039;t I am so self conscious and feel like everyone is staring at them. Please be honest, it won%26#039;t hurt my feelings. I just wanna know.|||I wouldn%26#039;t ask about it, no. But I would be curious. However, that was in your past and its your business not the rest of the worlds. They don%26#039;t give the best first impression but in my personal opinion is showed that that person is strong for getting over something terrible in their life and only leaving with a couple scars.
I bet they aren%26#039;t as obvious as you may think they are :)|||I wouldn%26#039;t be scared of that person i would be scared FOR that person. I would never ask them about it unless it was from like a shark attack or something like that.

i am a girl too, i had lots of pimples before i was really stressing on that but really i was searching for all types of cream to put on my face, they didn%26#039;t fade at all, it was becoming worst, All you have to do is, don%26#039;t wash the face so much, it dries the skin and gets more pimple and leaves the scar , i know the scars is really embarrassing, but really It will go by time, believe me, don%26#039;t stress yourself on it, but yes treat your skin, love your skin always. Even if you get the pimples on the cheeks, maybe the hormones are changing, or probably the chemicals ingredients on make up which cause you.
in 2007 my face was clear no pimples nothing, when 2008 omg i went to a beauty parlour, my stupid cousin told me to get a facial treatment there , since that time my face was horrible with lots of blemishes and i was really depressed, then on december 2008 i%26#039;ve decided not to be depressed on that, on march 2009 my face was almost clear:-) it was due to stress and the new chemical ingredients happened on the beauty parlour.
All you have to do is, be happy be confident, and always remember it%26#039;s just a couple of time , it will go by itself .
Never lose hope :-)|||Do searches on Answers and you will find many have tried every product and every medication and most say they have not been effective.
This safe, natural treatment truly works wonders. I had pronounced pimple and other scars from childhood accidents and it completely rid my skin of all them overtime. Use any oil, the best for acne prone skins are almond, grape seed or lavender - used by skin specialists for clearing up acne.
First, to prevent skin pulling or stretching, tighten by opening mouth 3/4%26quot; and pulling lips firmly back against teeth and do a forward and back vigorous massage directly on scarred areas using tips and front of fingers and sometimes palms. The massaging friction greatly fades them.
For fastest results do for 10 to 20 min daily - can be in two or more sessions. You will find you can do more vigorously and for longer as skin and hands adjust.
Depending on how vigorously/how often you do see significant diminishing in a about 7 to 14 and better results day by day. MIne were completely got rid of by this treatment alone.
Try it - you will be happy that you did!

What is the difference between blemishes and scars on the face?

How to get rid of scars made by cutting yourself?
I cut myself two nights ago and I need to get rid of the cuts! What can I do I need to do it by at least tomorrow pleasee help im so scared and i am never gonna cut again!|||You can buy bio oil. But it takes up to three months for the scars to go away completely, and you must put it on two times daily. Sorry, but there%26#039;s no way to make scars vanish by the snap of your fingers. I wish there was, though. I%26#039;m glad you%26#039;ve decided to never cut again.

How do you remove pimple scars from your face?
ive tried everything. i have these zit scars that i picked from and theres 2 red dots on my face? any ideas wat too put?|||There’s a product called %26quot;Bio-Oil%26quot; which is fantastic. I used it on a few scars I had on my face and almost with in a few days I noticed them fading. If you can’t find this exact product in your store pretty much any product with “PurCellin Oil” in it will do the trick. I was very impressed with the results.|||Are they recent? if they are recent and aren%26#039;t really scars yet, put toothpaste or visine on them. It removes the redness. If they are definitely scars, there isn%26#039;t too much to do to remove them now. In time they will fade but in case you want a quick solution:
Merle Norman (Make up company) carries cover up that works wonders. It is green but don%26#039;t worry, when you put it on it blends in and removes the redness and makes your skin look smoother.|||try 100% pure shea butter.|||If ur a teen/pre-teen/young adult and ur goign through puberty, leave it alone, but i think u dnt have a scar, a scar from a pimple/zit would be if there is a hole in ur face that is the only permanent scar, take Jet Li for example, those are pimples/zit/blackheads scars. Oh and u shouldnt pick ur pimpls/zits if it has white in it a bit then pop it (squeeze the hell out of it with 2 fingers side to side) it might hurt, only if it%26#039;s white a bit meaning it has oil.

The best things that you can do to remove acne scarring are microdermabrasion followed by a chemical peel. These will diminish the appearance of scars and even out your skin tone. Consult your local esthetician for more information.|||Go to the doctor and ask him/her , or get proactive solution, it might work, if you haven%26#039;t used it yet...|||I recomend Proactiv, if you still have pimples, and also Proactiv has a product called %26quot;Sking lightening Lotion%26quot; it%26#039;s about 18 bucks, but works wonders!!!
Hope it helped.

What is the solution in scars and blackening in the face caused by squeezing pimples?
I have a lot of scars both side of my jaws.
I used different astringent but it does not work.
What will be the best thing for me to do?|||Treat the acne put resist the temptation to pop the zits.Some people scar worse than others and you must have a real problem with scars.Your health care provider can get you some antibiotic to take orally and some other meds to apply to your skin.Often this can be done without having to pay big bucks for a dermatologist.Try not to be impatient as treatment will likely be needed for months but will pay off with nicer skin.If no better at all in 1-2 months of course a dermatologist should see you.Good luck!|||dermabrasion
laser surgury
chemical peels
bio oil
netrogena facial peels|||I don%26#039;t know if theres much you can do if you already have scars. I%26#039;m sure someone will say plastic surgery is the solution, but I%26#039;ve known a lot of people that still bear the scars of a rough acne problem from childhood.
