Looking for informed answer as to how vitamin e oil actually heal scars,what it does?.I am using it currently to treat a few acne scars,I am seeing an improvement but like to know how things work that I use on and I put in my body.
Thanks.|||It is an anti toxic.
%26quot;It has been claimed that δΌͺ-tocopherol is the most important lipid-soluble antioxidant, and that it protects cell membranes from oxidation by reacting with lipid radicals produced in the lipid peroxidation chain reaction. This would remove the free radical intermediates and prevent the oxidation reaction from continuing.%26quot;
This is how it may be helping with the scars.
edit. I did some research, and this is what I found.
Vitamin E is also an antioxidant. Although not as strong of one as Vitamin A, Vitamin E still does help to rid the skin of toxins which can lead to acne and helps to clear up existing acne. Vitamin E also promotes tissue repair and healing of the skin, two important aspects that help to both strengthen the skin and also to prevent damage caused by acne to become permanent. Additionally, Vitamin E prevents cell damage by inhibiting the oxidation of lipids (fats) and the formation of free radicals.
Do see link:|||It doesn%26#039;t really heal them. I%26#039;ve tried it. It%26#039;s supposed to soften them a little bit. Anything with a combination of cortisone and silicone (like ScarGuard) is helpful to raised scars, but if your scars are pitted, nothing you can buy over the counter will help much. Your best best is to see a dermatologist. In the meantine, the Vitamin E won%26#039;t hurt you, but don%26#039;t expect a dramatic change.|||The source below discusses the benefits of vitamin e for skin.|||Be careful no to take too much vitamin E. If you ingest more than the daily recommended amount, it will actually age you faster. But taking your recommended dosage will help with acne.
