Can Microdermabrasion, Dermabrasion or Exfoliation help remove ice pick acne scars?

i think so, but i heard of this easier way that you dont have to go through needles // whatever they use, its called ';Pockmark Filler'; and its by University Medical..it gets rid of those little hole thingers.. I haven't tried it but I really want too.. because i have the same thing..

What over the counter product is best for healing/reducing scars?

i have scars on my legs that have been there for a very long time and need them to go away as fast as possible because it's summer and it sucks wearing jeans in the hot weather. do you know any products that work the best and/or the fastest for reducing scars? i've heard that bio oil, cocoa butter, mederma and vitamin e work well but i want to be completely sure before I go out and buy it. thanks so much :)What over the counter product is best for healing/reducing scars?
I use Bio Oil and Mederma and they work great. But if they aren't fading fast enough you can use one of those bronzing lotions. The gradual tanners that give the illusion of even skin.What over the counter product is best for healing/reducing scars?
I heard vitamin e oil may have some beneficial effect, also, maybe consider applying some of that fake tan lotion on the legs, until you get a natural tan if thats what you want.

Can you tell me about your most precious scars?

Mine, i have a long thin scar on my right arm I got from sleeping on a box spring for a bed cuz my family was sooo poor that one of the springs was out %26amp; I was laying on it %26amp; I turned %26amp; it scratced me, %26amp; everyone askes me if that is an old war wound, %26amp; I tell them that some Iraqi cut me with a bayonet, %26amp; I get a lot of OOHS %26amp; AHHS but then come back to reality %26amp; tell them the true story...:D What is your best scar???Can you tell me about your most precious scars?
I have 2 scars that I'm actually quite proud of.


#1 I have a scar down the middle of my chest from open -heart surgery that I had when I was only 2 1/2 years old. Every day when I see that scar, I remember just how lucky I am to be here and that life is indeed precious.


#2 I have the scar from my C-section. I was in labor for 38 hours w/my son when things all of a sudden took a turn for the worst and they had to take him out ASAP. I was terrified at the time. Now, when I see that scar, I think of my beautiful son and the great blessings that he has given to me in the 3 years he has been on this earth.


I don't mind either scar. They are both great reminders of the important things in life :0)Can you tell me about your most precious scars?
I have a scar just below my hairline. I banged my head on a sewer grate, it cracked my skull, and I ain't been right since. I blame it for this horrible mess inside my head.
one small ..at the right forehead near hairline...i got it whne my bro and i wre fighting for a remote control when i was 12., he threw it to my head...ows...
I have a long thin scar on my left arm I got from the plaster cast i had to have because i fell off of a chair and broke my arm, cuz my family was sooo poor that one of the legs of the chair was broken. Why is it precious? Here is the reason:





First cast that was made wasn't done correctly and my bones joined in a crooked form. Doctors told my parents that I would have to live with that. My mom snatched the cricket bat my younger brother took with him to the hospital and told the doctor, ';Fix my son's arm or else...';. Hospital staff had a hard time keeping my mom calm. I guess, doctors realized he important I was to my mom and they did the needful to re-align the broken bone.
I have a scar from a C-section.


Its not that noticeable now but its the one scar I have that I don't mind.
I guess the one my wife gave me on my right on arm when we got into a fight... or agurment... It tells me that no matter how much crap we been through.. that in the end God keeps us together.. And that true loves never fails...





she basically tug her nails into my skin and it let a scar to this day...
It was my first day of school (I was 4) and Dad came in and took the safety rail off the bunk bed (I slept on the top bed) and carried me out to the kitchen. I ran back to bed, leant down to get the safety rail to put back on the bed, and it was so heavy I toppled forward, cracked my head open on the chest-of-drawers and went ';splat!'; on the floor. I remember being rushed to hospital and blood and screaming because they wanted to sew me up in the emergency room!


I had 5 butterfly stitches. The scar is on my forehead near my hair line now. It's still quite obvious... but I'm pretty proud of it.


I never did grow to like school!





Another scar I am proud of is one I got when I was in hospital with dehydration. The nurse tried to put a drip in and tore my skin with the needle. The scar is about a centimetre across on my right wrist. It was pretty scary at the time though. My skin tore like paper.





Ooh and another scar is on my butt cheek where they cut a mole out. They had to cut 2 inches deep and 2 inches wide and it hurt even with anaesthetic. It's pretty impressive!!
My most precious scar is my battle scar, the one I received from having cancerous cells cut out of my breast. I won the battle and am now cancer free.
i have stretch marks on my tummy, from being pregnant, i call them my motherhood scars, im not embarressed im still sexy, also i have one right above my eye which i got dancing as a kid, i love it because its unique its right accross my eyebrow and looks like i did it on purpose to be cool, but i didnt.
YOU HANGING OUT OF MY ******* INTERNET ****!
When i was 8, i was stripping bark off a branch with a pocket knife and the knife slipped and sliced my arm. Almost got my wrist. I barely felt it tho, because it was such a clean cut. It was gushing blood, and i went and asked my mom for a band aid. That didn't quite cut it, so i asked for another, and then she asked to see the cut, and she nearly fainted dead away when she did. I just wanted to go back out and play. I was a tough little thing, lol.
I have a scar between thumb and forefinger. When i was had broken my arm (both bones), bandage scoured meat there...
My most precious scars are on the inside... the best ones never show as easily.
well...not sure how precious it is...but the scar above my top lip from an x-boyfriend throwing a plate at me and it cut right through to the other side...reminds me of how i will never tolerate abuse in my life again.

  • Does anyone know about lemon juice and acne scars?

    I have read that it really helps, but no details. Do you use fresh lemons or is lemon juice ok? Help, please.Does anyone know about lemon juice and acne scars?
    Yes it does work, but be patient to see results, put it on before bed. I use pure lemon juice by Sicilia . It's in a small yellow bottle with a green cap in your produce section by the lemons. Apply with a cotton ball or use real lemons.Does anyone know about lemon juice and acne scars?
    I really don't think it will help. I would try something with retin-A in it and use it every night before bed. Don't use it while you're out in the sun or you'll get burned! Also do an at-home facial peel once every week to two weeks. Good luck!
    hi


    I would advice you to try some home based remedies for skin ,hair and weight problems, this link has some good information it sure did help me so here goes,


    http://tinyurl.com/zrol5





    goodluck
    I know that lemon juice mixed with water and sprayed onto hair lightens hair. However, never heard anything about acne scars.
    I think the lemon juice has citric acid in it, which will help minimize scarring. However, this will take years. Many people in the Mediterranean used to use lemons or orange juices on their skin for this reason. There is also a cream in the stores that you can buy, which contains citric acid. I can't remember its name, but it has a green cap. Good luck!
    it helps them taste like lemon, but it isn't going to make them go away
    no
    If you spray fresh lemons mixed with water makes you hair lighter i don t really now what acne scars is sorry i love to help

    How do I lighten scars?

    I have my cousins coming in a couple weeks and I have some acne scars on my face that I need help getting rid of. They're like black marks. Anyone know how to lighten them?





    Also, I was trying to get a blackhead out and it turns out it was kinda deep and I kinda used my nails to get it out. Now that spot is red (and the blackhead is still there %26gt;=/, anyone know how to get rid of the redness atleast?How do I lighten scars?
    its red because the skin has been irritated. try cooling it with a spoon thats been in the fridge for a few hours. do this three to four times a day.





    as ur guy (based on the pic) i should imagine you dont wanna wear makeup, but you could try a tinted moisturiser just to even out your skin tone.





    scars fade and lighten overtime, although you can use cocoa butter to speed up the process. just dont apply too much as you dont want your skin to be greasy.





    Hope this helps :)How do I lighten scars?

    Go to this website, they have some natural scar serum that might be helpful.





    As for the redness take an icepack to it. Never try to pop or scratch at blackheads or zits. It only makes it worse.





    A good way to get rid of blackheads is to use Clean %26amp; Clear astringent. You just have to wipe it across the affected area once with a cotton ball each morning and night. And wait for it to dry.





    Hope this helps! :]
    germoline is good for stoping swelling of spot and can also help with the scars as its a antiseptic cream





    ive herd savalon is also a really good antiseptoc cream :)





    u can get these at almost any local store and they should definatly have some in the chemists x
    the redness will go down with time. it will defo have gone by 2 weeks time. as for the scars, i cant help there

    Does Vitamin E creams or pure oil really work on scars?

    I've heard that Vitamin E is great on scars. I scar very badly, and it shows, especially on my face, which is rather bad on my cheeks due to acne. I've been using The Body Shop Vitamin skincare range and have seen only limited results. Does this actually work? Or is there anything else I can try?Does Vitamin E creams or pure oil really work on scars?
    Vit E and other scar-reducing creams only work on fresh scars. The only thing for old scars is to help minimize their appearance. Since the skincare products can only do so much to correct them from the inside you need microdermabrasion or peels to help minimize the scars from the outside. I would seek out a licensed aesthetician in your area that uses Physicians Choice products and talk about the different peels they offer. Jane Iredale is a makeup line that is mineral based and was developed by a woman that wanted to look normal after surgical peels. Supplements like evening primrose can also help. Check out Sunshine Living ampoules for scarring too. Good luck.Does Vitamin E creams or pure oil really work on scars?
    Yea Vitamin E oil works,but give it time,its not gonna do it overnight.say a few months or so
    Yes. Vitamine E is normally called Tissue Oil. I used to scratch my pimples, leaving me with scars. I used Tissue Oil on my face. I used to put on the oil just before going to bed, that way you don't rub too much off of the oil. The trick is, don't stop after a week, it takes a while before you see a difference, but it works.
    Cosmetic Surgery only will work
    try that cocoa butter stuff. ooh n that bio oil xxx
    It is good until old scars are not formed. Also buckthorn seeds oil is good in preventing bad healing of skin, it contains more different active things.
    yes - cvs brand at 110,000 works well
    I have a really bad scar on my hand from a bagel toaster at work. I bought that new Olay two in one microdermabrasion and chemical peel kit thingey.





    I've use it twice on my hand so far, and so far so good. The scar isn't as reddish in colour as it usually is...and my mom seems to think the size itself is shrinking a little.

    Mary Kay has a new product out that is supposed to fade scars and freckles and even out skin. It worked on my mom's scar on her face which was darker. It looked like she smeered self-tanner on it, or her foundation was not even. It took aobut 1 1/2 months to go away, but it worked.I have some old scars that are getting whiter against my skin, what will help fade them?
    Use vitamin e, it will heal your skin and make your scars dissappear. Us drugies use it all da time for our suicidal and floossy scars. Picked it up at treatment.
    Vitamin E oil or cream can be applied to the skin in the affected areas, every day .The cream should be applied overnight. Aloe Vera gel and fresh lemon juice can be applied to the scars, so that they fade quickly. You can find more cheap and natural remedies for stretch marks or scars at the link below.
    Sometimes vitiligo starts out where there is scarring...its a skin disorder that causes loss of pigmentation and there is really no cure if that is the case, just treatment. Might see a dermatologist to help rule that out.
    you cold try taking some multi-vitamins ( to work on this from the inside out) and using lotion with vitamin E. i rubbed some aloe vera juice on some of my scars for sevrel weeks ( almost three) and they faded quiet a bit.
    Vitim E cream. or a cream for stretch marks.

    Is there a way i can get rid of my scars?

    My girlfriend who used to be emo and when she was sad or depressed she had cut herself... she has a really big scar on her arm its been there for about 9 months.... and she doesnt know how to get rid of it? Is there any way to get rid of it? Please. she has been asking her dad but he doesnt know. A friend had told me Coco Butter works but her scar has been there for a decently long amount of time. Please help. :(Is there a way i can get rid of my scars?
    Cocoa butter is probably the best. Of course if the scar is that big it will probably always be there but cocoa butter will help it to fade after a period of time.Is there a way i can get rid of my scars?
    omg





    okay


    Mederma





    i was in a car accident and i have scars on my face and i used that at the beginning to flatten them





    it wont take it away 100% but it takes away the redness and flattens them


    it will cost you $30





    only laser scar removal surgery will


    thats what i get every 6 weeks ha ha

How can I get rid of it? Lemon and Lime juice, I'm afarid will stain my skin more. Thanks! I have no time limit, just want them gone!How can I get rid of zit scars?
    Try using a whitening product (Nivea Whitening Scrub works!). Or use Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel. They said it works. Last option: go to a dermatologist.How can I get rid of zit scars?
    Lemon and lime juice will not stain your skin. They might dry it out a little, so be sure to use them early in the morning or afternoon and apply lotion or some type of moisturizer at night. Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel is a product you can buy to get rid of them, but also, DRINKING lemon and lime juice can help get rid of scars and help you have clearer skin. Just squeeze some lemon juice into bottled water and drink up. It's actually quite refreshing and helps your skin. You can use yogurt as well, just rub yogurt on the affected area twice a day and be sure to wash it off, and eventually the scars will fade. If none of those work, you might want to buy some Mederma or some other type of cream that you can use that will be sure to fade your scars. Hope I helped. =)

    Get Rid of Acne Fast - Stunning Tips to Banish Acne and Get Your Clear and Healthy Skin Back





    To know how to get rid of acne fast, here are some practical tips you may want to consider.





    Do not Pop your Pimples. Many teenagers often think that when they pop their zits, they are on their way to saying goodbye to those unwanted pimples. But chances are, they're actually making it worse. Popping zits can generally spread the infection and may often result to the development of more pimples. However, if you really cannot keep your hands away from your pimple, just make sure you do it safely and correctly. That is, you should just target that very pimple and after which, put a mixture of ground cinnamon and honey on the area.





    Exfoliate. Removing dead skin cells is also another secret towards finally saying goodbye to your acne for good. You can try using natural defoliants like finely-ground walnut shells before scrubbing it gently on your face. You can also try using over-the-counter defoliants like glycolic acid or salicylic acid but ask your pharmacist as to how you can use it correctly.





    It is normal for teenagers to whine about the discomfort acne brings them. That is why, understanding the ways on how to get rid of acne fast is probably the best solution to worry no more about pimples.
    you can use bio-oil, you can find it at any drug store the review for it was great and many people said it worked no only for their scars but also their stretch marks
    I use tomato scrub. It really works!

    How can I get rid of depressed scars?

    I have depressed scars from acne and I have just started to realize how disgusting it looks. I don't want to get surgery so I was wondering if there is another way. This chick from mary kay said they had a product for it... but I forgot what it was called too. %26gt;_%26lt; help??How can I get rid of depressed scars?
    Well,when it comes to acne scars,you should include a scar serum in your skincare regime since this could improve your scar appearance by promoting healing and cell renewal.Plus,you could also use Vitamin E or Cocoa Butter since these really works wonders on acne scars.However,if you would like to opt for remedies,I would suggest different 4 steps that you could try at home to improve your scars.





    Baking Soda-Exfoliate your skin with baking soda. Often times, a version of baking soda is used in cosmetic microdermabrasion treatments. You can give yourself a mini microdermabrasion treatment by mixing one teaspoon of baking soda with the two teaspoons of filtered water.Then gently rub the mixture on your acne scar for sixty seconds then rinse it off.





    Fresh Fruits-In addition to eating fresh fruits to supply your skin with collagen building vitamin C, you can also smear them onto your face for gentle acid exfoliation. Just puree a forth a cup of pineapple and smooth it onto your face. Leave it for 10-15 minutes, then rinse. Since the pineapple contains ascorbic acid, it will impart a brightening effect on the face, and help fade acne marks.





    Apple And Honey-Using a blender, make a mixture out of 1 peeled apple with 1 tablespoon of yogurt, half a cucumber and 1 tablespoon of honey. Apply on face, leave for 20 minutes and wash off with warm water.





    Olive Oil-Massage a pea-sized amount of olive oil onto your face.Acne scaring can cause the skin to lose its elasticity and suppleness.The moisturizing nutrients in the olive oil will penetrate the skin to deeply moisturize the skin and soften the skin鈥檚 texture.





    Well,these are those 4 remedies that works best for your skin that impose no irritation to your skin.Good luck trying these at home and pick one that suits you.Hope this helps and great skin wishes.





    P/s:You could also opt to use a facial scrub once a week to gently exfoliate your dead skin cells to improve skin complexion.Do try these remedies I suggest you.It work wonders on my skin and I'm sure it would do you the same.Hope this helps:-)How can I get rid of depressed scars?

    really apricot scrub works good for me it clears all the dead skin cells and lets the skin heal so new skin can grow back . . . mederma skin cream i think they sell it at walgreens gets rid of scars . . . the makers of headon has a product that's for healing old and new scars





    do you ever clean with a facial sponge or give yourself a mask once a week? get yourself something that will tighten your pores
    ive always wanted to go sky diving but never had the opportuning to :(
    If you exfoliate your skin regularly, over time your problem spots should begin to fade.





    When you exfoliate, you use an abrasive scrub to gently remove dead skin cells from your face. Over a long period of time, you will wear down the cells around your scars--if they aren't too deep.





    You can probably be safe about exfoliating every day, unless your skin is very dry. I'd focus more on removing dead cells and trying to keep the new ones clean and healthy. Try a scrub like St Ives Apricot Facial Scrub. It's at drugstores and groceries.

    I would recommend using Timewise Microdermabrasion Set


    http://www.marykay.com/jessbell/skincare鈥?/a>


    and


    Timewise Even Complexion Essence


    http://www.marykay.com/jessbell/skincare鈥?/a>





    The microdermabrasion is amazing. It made my skin so smooth and normally it would cost anywhere from $60-$600 for one treatment in the salon. I got about 30 applications out of one set. I used that with the Even Complexion Essence, which helped even out my skin tone. My skin has never looked better. I recommend it to my clients that sit in my chair when I am doing their makeup.How can i get rid of acne scars? i have been using bio oil and i think it is really good?
    Time is the only thing that truely fades them. I have the same problem. So if you find out an answer let me know. Good luck!
    Medical microdermabrasion would help. If you've got the cash then laser resurfacing would definitely work. I had Erbium laser resurfacing 6 months ago for some very deep acne pits and they've raised up by 60%. I'm about to have another treatment in December. The Erbium is quite a severe form of laser (you look like Freddie Krueger for a week or so), but there's less aggressive laser treatments for acne you can try. I would recommend going to a dermatologist and/or cosmetic surgeon rather than a beauty salon. Good luck. Living with the scars isn't easy, I know.
    i think bio oil is the best solution - maybe try just using it at night?
    Microdermabrasion. See a professional. it's expensive but it saves time and money in the long run. if you really can't afford a professional service, at-home microdermabrasion kits may work also (but they are not as effective).
    use fade cream by palmers
    Do a search for 'Medik8' products. I use 'Red Alert' for Rosacea and it keeps it under control. I'm sure there will be something for acne scars. The 'Red Alert' may even be the most effective for your problem.
    slice those pepperonis off with a razorblade
    cocoa butter or try scar repair products
    Sorry to burst your bubble, but you CANNOT get rid of scars by applying oil. There are some other over the counter medication for scars, but I don't recommend any of them. Talk to a dermetologist. They have a varitey treatments avalible.

    i used to have really bad skin.. so i started using pro active... it works great.. the only problem is u have to be consistent with it, if u stop using it, u'll skin will eventually go back to the way it was.





    also...i'm currently using this thing called scar zone... its amazing.. it got rid of acne scars ive had from years ago..and it also prevents u from getting new pimples as well. its awesome. i really recommend u try it.

    best of luck.my wishes to ya!How do i get rid of acne scars and acne?!?
    I used Proactiv for a long time and it worked pretty well to clear up my skin, but it didn't really help the scars. Now I use it in conjunction with Retin A, a cream my doctor prescribed. It encourages your skin to heal and helps scars fade. I hear Accutane works well but its pretty strong, so Retin A might be a good alternative, although its not a permanent solution like Accutane is.
    For the scars, I recommend keeping them away from the sun. Sun + scars = darker scars for longer. Plus, staying out of the sun will keep you from looking like a prune when you're older and all that...





    For the acne, have you tried something with salicylic acid? It's cheaper than trying a prescription drug like Accutane, and it certainly can help keep pimples at bay.
    apple cider vinegear helps me alot
    The best way is to eat healthy - cut down on junk food and eat lots of fruits and vegetables and water. As for the the scars, using a face scrub or masks can help, as well as getting some sun. It just takes time.
    one thing i have used is accutane. it is VERY VERY strong but it did work. you have to go through your doctor to get it. also to help overnight i have used toothpaste or over the counter ance masks and treatments. good luck!
    Go to a dermatologist. Honestly- best thing I ever did. They will help you get the best skin you can have. I started out with a system of pills and creams, which didn't help me. Then I was put on Accutane. Accutane is way serious and some people have difficulties while on it. I have perfect skin now because of it.





    Once you no longer get acne, they will help you get rid of scars.





    Good luck!
    Acnefree makes a scar repair kit. I've used it three times so far and am allready seeing results. For more serious scarring, mederma would probably work better.

    Can scars ever be compeltly healed?

    I have quite a few on my arms, and i really don't want them to be there forever. Will they eventually fade because they are not that deep? Is there creams %26amp; stuff that actually work to heal scars?Can scars ever be compeltly healed?
    im not sure about creams, or if they go away comp. i was watching tyra a while ago, and she said that all the super models put tanning lotion on their scars and then go tanning. i tried it, and it works, give it a try.Can scars ever be compeltly healed?
    Yes, depending on how bad the injury was. I had a scar on my back that i had to get 6 stiches in about 4 years ago, and it might take some time, but it is almost completely gone, i can barely see it. If it is something you are really worried about there is a scar reducing medicine called mederma. Rub that on them and it will reduce the look of your scar in just a few weeks. Good Luck.
    maybe use cocoa butter or vitamin e babe or bio oil...i have scars and i have used nearly EVERYTHING , and it hurts some times because it dont work and its like im trying so hard but sumtimes just forgetting about the scars and concentrating on other things can actually help...but whilst concnetrating on other tings just keep putting the cream/oils etc, on., then one day without u realising u might just look and see ur scar has faded rather than....what i use 2 do and just look at it everry single DAY to see if it has gotten a bit better..





    Good luck xxx
    no they can't because it is the tissue under the exterior skin which causes scarring. you can put medicine and a special vitamin (i think either B or C) that you can put on it which will help calm it down.
    Try vitamin E cream. Scars are permanent unfortunately. Once the skin is gone down that deep its permanent. There is surgery to cut out the scar and make it thinner but thats expensive.
    Yes, there are things that work... you just have to make sure you are applying it generously multiple times a day and keeping up with it.





    I use Preventin-AT Advanced Scar Therapy Vanishing Intensive Serum.
    if u put medison
    scars ARE healed. they are forever. they will fade wih time tho'

    Has anyone gotten laser treatment on chickenpox scars? I am an adult with recently healing scars?

    They are the typical ';pitted'; type. I don't need to know about any other treatments, I have already asked people about that...I am now considering laser treatment. I just wanted to know if anyone had it done on these type of scars, and how it turned out...also, does it lead to a new ';scar'; from the treatment, or how does it look after the treatment....thank you!Has anyone gotten laser treatment on chickenpox scars?

    You say your scars are ';recently healing.'; Give it time. your body will repair itself. You coudl hep it along w/ some Maderma (sp?) cream.

    I have a scar on my arm and I am using using Mederma. I was wondering to all those who have used it. Does it work?Does Mederma for scars really work?
    It works, but not as well as they say it does. Your scar will probably never disappear, but it will fade. Scar Zone works just as well and is cheaper. Mederma works better on stretch marks than scars.Does Mederma for scars really work?
    Yes. It's very effective.

    yup
    yes

    How would you react if you saw lots of scars on your son/daughters arms?

    like scars from a year agoHow would you react if you saw lots of scars on your son/daughters arms?
    Making a big deal about it is wrong, they'd only back up into a corner and they wouldn't talk to you, if the scars are old then try not to worry, it was most likely a phase they've grown out of just let them know if they need to talk you are there.How would you react if you saw lots of scars on your son/daughters arms?
    well depending on the severeness of the scars, I would probably assume they were from cuts and scrapes from them falling. If they look like severe scars that you know isn't possible to get from falling, then I would question them. Or wait til' a new cut appears and ask my child where they came from. I'm sure they're just from falling though, kids do it all the time! My 1 year old has already gotten 2 scars on her from falling on the concrete once at her birthday party, and the other one was a few months ago. Just keep an eye out, if anything looks suspicous, ask your kids.
    You need more details. How old is the child? If it's a teenager (and I'm the mom in this scenario) I would assume it was self-inflicted. If it was a young child, I would think it was from a normal fall that all kids have....but, I'm sure I would remember such a fall, that would leave a scar a year later. If my young child was in day care, or under someone else's supervision, and I couldn't recall an instance where they would have had a big fall a year ago, I would be very suspicious.





    EDIT: For a 17 yr old, again, I would assume it was self-inflicted. As a parent, I would confront the teen, leaving no room for lies, by saying, ';I saw what you did to your arm and we need to talk about it. If now is not a good time, or you need some time to think, we'll talk later tonight.';
    If they are straight cuts that happen in rows, or some kind of pattern, then it would be safe to assume that something is wrong with the child, i.e cutting. If they are hiding them, that is even more reason to conclude that their is an issue.





    I would speak to them and see if they have thoughts about hurting themselves. Check their legs as well, the thigh is usually the place they go if they are afraid of getting caught.
    It depends on if they are old or brand new. A lot of kids cut themselves now as a depression type punishment situation in which they do not understand or can handle mentally or physically issues.





    If their old scars, then he problem jumped that hurdle alone already.





    If their new scars, Counseling is in order.
    Are they deliberate? As in self-mutilation? If yes, I'd get them help and confront them about it.





    Otherwise, I'd ask them if someone was hurting them, why they were hiding it, etc. and see from there.





    If they're just normal scars from careless kids stuff (sports, rough play, et cetera), then it's no issue. It happens; if someone comes out of childhood without those scars, it's a sure sign to me that they probably had a very boring childhood =P
    There is definitely a problem here. Either she is doing it to be cool, which is a major problem within its self, or she is having emotional issues and is using pain to deal with them. You need to talk to your daughter and find out what's going on. Hopefully she isn't self-destructive anymore.


    I hope this helps.


    Good Luck.
    depends how old the child was





    if they are under 7 maybe they were getting bullied, maybe they like to climb trees alot.





    if they are say 10+ maybe its self harm because of bullying or other problems, but you really need to talk to your child
    Well what kind of scars are they if it happen a year ago? I would have investigated when I saw them a year ago.
    so you havn't seen your son's arms for a year?


    and i would ask him why he does that.
    It depends on what the scars are from.
    i will be worried if the child hid them .
    I'd say, ';Neato, those are some bitchin' battle scars, champ!';


    And then we'd go play a game of father/son catch.

    Do girls care about medium sized facial scars?

    Hello,


    I have a fairly large facial scar on me right cheek, it goes from the side of my nostril to my ear. and also from my right nostril to my chin. its very noticeable and i have always been self conscious about it. (even though i have learned to hide it very well that i am terrified) i cannot seem to just go up to a girl and talk to her without almost freaking out about her staring at my scar and not actually caring about me? Would a girl really care after about 10 seconds of 1st impression?Do girls care about medium sized facial scars?
    I had a boyfriend that had a scar on his face and I actually found it kind of attractive, I thought it made him look tough. Don't worry about it too much, if a girl can't look past that, then she's not worth your time anywayDo girls care about medium sized facial scars?
    It depends on what type of girl she is. If shes stubborn, then she'll stare at it and care. Real relationships start from the inside. The personality is more than the looks. A good girl wouldn't care about the scar, she would care about what you are inside. You could be the hottest boy, but still never get a girlfriend because you are so stubborn, greedy, racist, etc. Don't worry about the scar, girls wont either.
    well if it was a first impression and due to the shallow nature of this question I have to say it would depend how good looking you are


    if you were still good looking enough the scar wouldn't bother me, actually I would probably find it quite interesting
    You'd be surprised how many girls like the beaten up look. But conventionally, you may have a little trouble. It's better you aim to befriend a girl and show her your personality before she thinks of your looks as all there is to you - that is, if you really feel that your scar will hamper you.





    If your self consciousness gets the better than you, then maybe you should have a look on websites designed to help you with scarring. It's an easy google search if you're looking for natural help with scarring, particularly use of cocoa butter and essential oils, though there are unconventional means like teas and herbal facials, but I don't really believe those work. Have you seen those adverts for Bio Oil on tv? Maybe you should give that a shot?





    Regardless of anything you choose, no matter how old your scar is treat that skin and the skin around it quite delicately to prevent aggravation of any kind. Do whatever else you want to your face, but use some kind of gentle face wipe if you're ever cleaning the scar. That way it can't worsen in any way.





    If worst comes to worst and you really feel like your scar is ruining things for you, you may have to consider surgery. But that must always be considered the very last resort!





    Good luck, and always remember some very ugly, awful men end up with loving wives, so nothing is impossible :P

    I acne problems beginning when I was 15. I had acne on my cheeks that was embarrasing. I tried Proactiv, Murad, and even the Asso Gold Cleaning Bar with dismal results. I ended up visitng a dermatologist in Arkansas. After 5 months nearly all of my acne cleared up. I recommed you try finding a local Colorado dermatologist that can help. http://www.homeacnecare.com/Colorado-Dermatologists.htmlIs the Colorado Laser clinic (removal of scars) like a pit from acne expensive?
    It completely depends on the severity and the area you're treating


    typical prices vary on those things. if its a small area


    a couple of hundred, whole face can be thousands


    and you may need repeated treatments.


    C02 Lasers are used for the most stubborn scars


    burning off the top layer of skin, allowing a fresh layer to grow


    a usual one time only treatment. BUT beware of the sun


    SPF must be worn for the rest of your life pretty much


    to reduce risk of hyperpigmentation


    fractionated lasers don't wound the skin and work from the inside


    out the downtime is less and you'll need repeated visits


    if you're scars don't react as well and you're looking at a


    usual 50%-60% improvement.


    Anywho all in all, depends on the type of treatment you


    get and the size. WHOLE FACE- Thousands


    SPOT TREATMENT- Hundreds

    Does anyone know how to fully remove scars?

    when i was little i had an accident, i was skating on ice and


    accidentally i fell with my hand on my own ice-skating shoe(it had a very sharp knife under it) and it was a really stupid accident :s, i went to a doctor with it and he said that there would remain a small scar on the right palm of my hand, he said it would heal good but i think it looks bad, does anyone know how to hide or fully remove this scar because i feel really bad about it.Does anyone know how to fully remove scars?
    You are worried about a scar on your hand, of all places? Scars make you more of a man, except if they are on your face, then they make you look crazy. So get over it. It's an imperfection that the person who you end up being with will adore and not despise you for.Does anyone know how to fully remove scars?
    Scars cannot be removed, just covered up. See your plastic surgeon for more details. :P
    First, stop worrying about it. A little scar on the palm is not a big deal. But if you must, see a plastic surgeon -- she should sort it out.
    Unfortunately, there is not much you can do to reduce scarring once the scar tissue has been created and the wound has healed, especially if there is a lot of scar tissue. I used carrot essential oil, which I mixed one to ten with almond oil on old scars, and they certainly improved, but never went away entirely. Try it anyway. It probably doesn't look as bad as you think. I love all the scars on my boyfriend, becasue they are part of him.

  • Do vitamin e pills work to heal scars on face?

    i have some scars on my face not acne scars just from picking at scabs and it looks bad when im not wearing make up.


    do these tablets and work and how long will they take to work?Do vitamin e pills work to heal scars on face?
    Nothing but surgical intervention will remove a scar. They will fade with time. Keeping your scar out of the sun helps, and some report that certain creams will fade them too. Don't believe anyone who tells you they can get rid of them entirely without cutting them out though, it just doesn't happen that way.Do vitamin e pills work to heal scars on face?
    yes these tablets work, I use them but they take like a month to work, what also helps ur skin is if u use the vitamin e thats for ur face, like u actually take it and put it on ur face, ask about it in ur nearest drug store, my mom got it for me and its amaizing I noticed change withing the first day, just make sure ur face is cleansed b4 u apply them. ok so I don't know what the name is for this vitamin e that u was just telling u about but it usually comes in pills that u could squeeze the end with ur nail and take it off and put some on ur finger then apply it. the pills are seathrough and yellowish. I don't thing it always comes in pills though so just go to ur nearest drug store and ask them for vitamin e that u can apply on ur face. only use it twice a day once when u wake up and when u wanna go to sleep :)
    the reason that these ';wonder creams'; work for reducing visibility of scars is the massaging of the lotion into your skin. massaging the scars breaks up the scar tissue and helps it to eventually reduce over time. yes, the vitamin e probably helps,but you're really paying for an excuse to massage the scar. they don't tell you that, because they want your money.
    Yep, vitamin E really does work. The pills are more effective since they will do good to your skin from within and not on the outside. I use the vitamin E cream every night. It's a moisturizer and it's good for my skin.
    i think u can use mederma cream. It really works for scars. if its a very old one u should apply until 6months.. if it is old but not severe, it will work wonders within 3 months.. and this cream will help reducing strech marks if any... hope i helped!!
    if ur scar is a pimple mark or dark spots it will work


    but not for any other scars


    also try to cleanse and moisturise every day


    don't pick ur pimples it may leave scars
    I've never heard anything to indicate they work for healing scars. I'm not an expert, though.
    use Bio Oil, its INCREDIBLE!

    A good foundation to cover acne scars?

    I did an accutane treatment and my acne is GONE, hallelujah!


    I am white and my acne scars are reddish! I use a thick foundationtion which covers up the red, but draws out the indentions of my face.


    Anyone know a light foundation with good coverage???

    Good for you your acne is gone! well i suffer from acne and i use Maybelline's dream matte mousse foundation,it covers really well and for me it lasts the whole day,i just put abit of powder on it and all set to go.It's not heavy,feels very light and silky to the skin.I've used millions of foundations and nothing worked for me,i wanted great coverage while looking natural and i found that with this dream matte mousse.Do moisturize your skin with a good oil-free moisturizer before putting on any foundation,you'll see your skin will look great!
    Pure works for everything, including acne scars and pimples, dark under eye and whole face foundation. It's 50% water so it won't make your acne come back and you can't even feel the foundation when it dries+it comes with every skin tone. You can get it at target, kmart and pretty much every drugstore makeup isle
    bare minerals/bare essentuals is a great cover up; you may also want to use a scar cream to fade some of that out ; some laser treatments may also help ; Laura Geller products are good ; smashbox has a great primer, photo finish ; good luck and don't be hard on yourself for things that weren't your fault; I felt sorry for myself for having no shoes until I saw a man with no feet; you are beautiful no matter what
    First you need to use a primer and possibly a concealer depending on how deep and red the scarring is. Then put on a foundation. The thick foundations have oils in them and may make the acne come back just so you know. The best primer, concealer and foundation is made by Bee-Luscious. These products allow your skin to breath so it feels very light and airy. Plus it has absolutely no fillers so a few drops on your finger tip will cover your whole face! Bee-Luscious can be found on-line at beeroyalprodcuts.com.
    Revlon Colorstay ';Active'; foundation. It is great for skin. It is oil free and contains SPF 25. It stays on the whole day and does not budge for more than 16 hours. You can build up the coverage by layering it, but there is no need for that because in one application, every thing is basically covered.
    y dont you use a primer first to minimize the redness then apply on foundation... if not try find a moisturizer at sephora or at a mall that would help you get rid of the redness.. try using murad or philosphy...
    first of all dear if u had an acne previously that means u got a oily skin so never use liquid foundations other wis their r chances of bad skins instead use good company like avon concealors i m the member of avon and above that use compaq ok
    definitely everyday minerals...


    it`s light..natural looking..and


    it lasts the whole entire day..


    and you can`t even feel it at all.


    it also does not clog pores and


    doesn`t contain bismuth, which


    causes irritations/itchiness...


    it`s pretty cheap for mineral


    make-up as well..just go to this

    experiment with diff. colors of

    there is also a cream made by obaji that is meant to take away redness and scars. I've used it and it works like a charm. Only problem is I don't know what it's called. But it comes in a small tube and smells like buttered popcorn, it can also smell like feet. u put it on at night and it'll go away. Ask your dermo and i'm sure they'd know what I'm talking about.

    You may want to try a skin whitening product. They use natural ingredients such as Arbutin and kojic acid, which have been proven scientifically to safely lighten the skin and give you even skin tone.





    Most people have reported success with using skin lightening product to treat dark spots, skin discoloration, acne scars, sun spots. Results are visible anywhere from 2 weeks to a month, depending on your skin type.





    You should look for skin whitening products that do not contain hydroquine, which can cause skin irritation. Also, it should be used in conjunction with a sunscreen.

    You can't remove them, but you can disguise them with make up.Just to be wondering How do you remove scars from ur body?
    use Cocoa butter
    Moisturize (any type of lotion or oil will do)


    Vitamin E (the vitamins help but it's really the moisture that's great)


    Dermatologist (professionals that can help alleviate scarring)


    Plastic Surgeon
    I learned a technique from a occupational therapist that has help me lose a old, wrinkled scar from a terrible surgery. It takes some time, and you will see the scar tissue come out in pimple like bumps. You lay your finger on the scar in the same direction the scar runs. Then you rub back and forth the so as to move the scar up and down. You want to move your finger the long way, if this makes sense, so it is going the same direction the scar runs. If you dumped a box of dry spagetti noodles on a table and ran your hand over them in one direction, you would see the lump of spagetti line up into a flat mound. Scar tissue is kind of like spagetti, it adhears in all different directions, and by rubbing it in one direction, you will cause the scar tissues to line up and become flat. You will never completely get rid of it, but it can become flat and unnoticable.
    are you a cutter!? if not or so then you let it baith in a mixture of strong vadka (or rubbing alcahol) and vinniger (vadka is not suggested if its deep scars)
    Dr Jet's magic tounge. Licks scars right off.





    Disclaimer: For some reason this procedure only works on females.
    If it is an old scar then go to a dermatologist and ask if he can tell you methods for removal of the scar.





    If is it a fresh scar then sometimes neosporin applied to the wound will keep it from scarring.





    http://www.skinbiology.com/scarsveinsmol鈥?/a>
    Depends on the type of scars. smaller ones can be taken care of by the use of Maderma cream. stretch marks (esp due to pregnancy) can be take care of by the use of Cocoa Butter.
    try using aloe vera lotion
    Scar serum from drug stores is quite effective given time
    why remove them? make up cool stories about them!





    my dad has this scar on his chest and i used to ask him where he got it...he would always tell me he got stabbed in a barfight...i guess i asked him occasionally because i never really believed him


    when i was grown, i mentioned it to my grandma and she laughed...she said he got that scar when he was a boy, he fell out of a tree and landed on the barbed wire fence
    Scars are supposed to be permanent. However, laser surgery can make them go away.

    I would wait until you are able to afford a more expensive treatment to actually take care of it. My friend had major acne scars and waited until she was 26 before being able to afford microdermabrasion at the dermatoligist. I know they sell at home kits but they probably don't work nearly as well and I doubt they are really worth the money. Her face looks soooooo good now and it took maybe 3 months worth of treatments and healing for it to go from pitted scars to smooth. JC Penney and Macys also sell a makeup which covers/fills in acne scars or other facial blemishes so if it bothers you then you could just use makeup like that. I wouldn't be ashamed of your scars, probably 25% of the population has them.
    There is really no home remedy for scars. There is the over the counter scar remover that you can buy at the drug store...like Mederma I think...but I do not think that works very well. Chemical peels or laser are your best options. There is a laser clinic in my area of NC that charges only $50 for acne related laser treatments. There are some at home chemical peels (usually used for wrinkles) but they don't even work for wrinkles really (trust me, I've tried 'em...:)...), so I don't think they would work for your scars. Check into the laser clinics in your area. Good luck!
    First: Wash Face Daily If you want to dispose of acne, wash your face daily. Don't forget making ample use of antibacterial soap. This will clear up skin of pimples and whiteheads.

    Cocoa butter. Not the creamy lotion kind, or it won't work - get 100% PURE cocoa butter. You can find it at Duane Reade or any other drugstore, and it's 1$ for a small stick - which is all you need. Apply it twice a day and really rub it in. In a few months, all your scars will be GONE.

    You may try out these remedies at home that will help you to get rid off acne marks and cure your face.





    * Take the fresh juice of lemon and dip some cotton wool in it. Pat your face with the cotton and let it dry. Some people may find the lemon juice irritating. In that case, you can dilute it in some water or rose-water. Let it dry for 15-20 minutes and wash your face with water after that. Do this at least four times a week and you will find considerable change.


    * Make a paste with some sandalwood powder and rose-water. Add 2-4 drops of lime juice to it. Apply this paste on your face and neck and let it dry completely. After that, rinse your face with cool water and wipe off the paste with cotton wool. Do this on a regular basis (twice a week) to get good results.


    * Apply cucumber juice on your face with cotton wool. In summers, you can do this almost daily as it helps cool off the skin and tighten the pores. Cucumber juice is very helpful is making your skin glow and make it feel fresh.


    * A popular homemade remedy for removing acne marks is to make a paste of apple and honey. Make the apple paste first and then add 4-6 drops of honey. Apply this mask on your face. Wash off after 15 minutes. This will tighten pores and make your complexion light.How do I get rid of Scars?

    Go to a medical spa and get microdermabrasion or laser treatments, which both remove top layer of skin. Can help by making considerably less apparent. Also, lotions for scarring and strech marks might help. There is one with emu oil that works great its sold at wal mart.
    I have this problem, except I'm light-skinned (as in white). I've recently started using Mederma 3-4 times a day on my worst scarred areas (I had cystic acne), but it takes about 3-6 months to see results, so.... I've tried Mederma before, but I usually always give up within two weeks, so I'm hoping it really does work. I have huge pockmarks that I'm trying to smooth out. However the only thing I do know of that works for real is this really expensive peel from the dermatologist. By the way, I hate using make-up too. I just use witch hazel to tone out some of the discoloration, and my definite advice that I can give, other than seeing a dermatologist for a peel, is to just learn to accept them as a part of you. This was really hard for me too, but it's the only thing that will definately work.

    Nope. If you catch the disease, you get pock marks all over. Not that you can catch the disease any more. It's extinct in the wild, thank God.


    Is it true that Smallpox causes scars only where the material is injected or scratched into the body?
    YES





    The rash starts as flat red sores, which fill with pus, crust over, and finally develop scabs, which fall off around week 3.

    yes.. all is possible today! you have certain creams that work like a sort of bleach for skin...this is best if you have skin blotches, or marks of different color...


    but usually the absolute best solution (if you have some extra cash) is to go to a dermatologist and see if he recommends surgery. Today, this surgery isn't so bad, often done with laser. i think you go a couple of times until your skin becomes absolutely smooth. but before anything, do consult a dermatologist, they'll advise you according to your skin type, color, sensitivity, costs, and god knows what else...

    If you are ever wondering on how to remove acne scars, do not be desperate, for I have news for you. Acne scars can be removed, even though there are types of scars that can be difficult to be treated.





    It will not be very smart to find just a plain treatment to remove acne scars. These days, acne experts recommend a series of treatments, where some of the treatment are proven to be work while other treatment seem too radical. therefore it is important to determine which treatment that suit you the best to be able to remove the acne scar. It would be a good idea to consult a dermatologist and start according to acne scar removal program, which the dermatologist has recommended for you. Otherwise, it can damage your skin instead.





    The following are 3 treatments to remove your acne scars:

    Hello, Amanda, honestly, it is impossible acne scars to be removed very fast at all. If I tell you some tonics, creams, especially those over-advertised I should be lying you. See, the laser procedure, which guarantee you at about fully erasing of your acne scars is called Dermabrasio and is invasive operation. I would not recommend it to you. Unfortunately, I can tell you from personal experience that THE MOST DIFFICULT FOR REMOVING ARE ACNE SCARS, they are pitted, and very tough for removing. I will brief you what you can do:


    -Dermabrasio ( plastic surgery operation, not recopmmended)


    - Multiple glicolic acid's peelings ( could be of help)


    - Phenol peeling ( a little toxic, but really deep, not recommend you)


    -Green Peel ( a marvellous solution for any kind of csars, blemishes, especially from acne, 100% herbal, proven in most than 45 countries)


    - A sylicone based gels, such as Zeraderm scar gel ultra ( very good wqorking on keloid and hyperthrophic scars, but is not so proven under acne scars)


    - Mederma( too advertised, not working, not recommend you)





    In brief dear, I strongly recommend you to try Green Peel for acne scars and as cream and wash gel the best as per me are La Roche Posay ';Effaclar';.


    Hope that is of help.


    Have a great day!How can I remove my acne scars very fast?
    get some spackle and a putty knife, just tell people that is how you roll.

    Go down to Home Depot and get yourself a belt sander. Get a heavy grit paper if it's really bad.
    i would say that, regardless of all the creams that claim quick recovery of skin, the rate of skin recovery really depends on individual.





    I would advise you to have adequate sleep and have a balanced diet. Keep your skin clean and avoid harsh sunlight.


    Also I heard that by massaging moisturiser onto your scar might help. However please use mild one, those that doesn't block your comedoms.





    Well no harm trying. Good luck
    there aren't any
    That all sounds like good advice for someone else, but something you might try for a while is to cut back on the creams, lotions, and make-ups and to dry your face after getting out of the shower. It most likely won't go away in one day, but after a month you might be suprized how good you look.

    How to prevent the facial skin scars?

    You don't say what the scars are from. If it's from a laser or chemical re-surfacing treatment, the best thing to do is to keep the skin from forming tiny scabs. Try a product like SkinCeuticals Primacy Hydra Balm in the evening and Theraplex Lotion during the day. Your skin will be smooth, soft and scar-free providing you ALSO use a good sunscreen. I recommend SunStop





    http://www.google.com/products?q=Primacy鈥?/a>


    http://www.theraplex.com/


    http://www.bodyconcept.com/family/3457/s鈥?/a>





    If your scars are from acne, I recommend good basic skin care along with some excellent exfoliating options. If you're on acne meds, continue use. Talk to your dermatologist about the use of microdermabrasion and, once you get the okay, proceed (not with over the counter microderm (though you can achieve some re-surfacing but it will not be as dramatic as clinical microderm) by looking for an esthetician who specializes in working with acneic clients. Why an esthetician? Because she/he will probably be less expensive than having microdermabrasion at your dermatologists office and, if you do your homework and find a good one, you'll get the exact same results. Again, product usage such as sunscreens is a MUST when it comes to avoiding the darkening of acne scars. The Sun Stop recommendation above holds true. You might also try an enzymatic peel which is find for acneic skin providing it's not medical strength. Look for something like Clean Zyme/Skin Zyme by Jan Marini. It utelizes special enzymes from the papaya to eat away dead and diseased tissue while leaving the healthy tissue glowing and clean. You can find them here:





    http://www.janmarini.com/SupplementalCle鈥?/a>





    Here's a link to Diamond Tome microdermabrasion equipment. It's what I use in my treatment room and I think it's the best out there. It's crystal free which I think is important for acneic skin (any skin really) but I mostly put the link here for you to see what getting a microderm treatment looks like. On the right hand side, just click on ';media player';.


    http://www.diamondtome.com/


    Again, it's essential to have good hydration, if there are ';breaks in the skin'; use something like the hydra balm so no scabs can form, use sunscreen at all times and that should minimize most scarring on not only your face but the rest of the body.





    Hope you found that helpful. If you need any other info, just drop an email.


    Good luck,

    Vitamin E


    Mederma
    I've head that bio oil is good but my family use Oxy on the spot. Apparently this helps to remove spot marks. I haven't tried because i believe in letting spots and marks to go naturally or use natural/herbal ingredients.
    you need a really gentle exfoliator and bio-oil, use both daily.
    I would recommend what I keep using to make my spot scars invisible, its zenmed's scars and hyperpigmentation treatment kit. I'm very satisfied with its effectiveness and quick time it takes in making scars (no matter how dark they are) invisible in a short period.
    I've tried bio-oil and find it quite good but you have to use it alot.


    Also good are Vitamin E (capsules which you open and apply to skin or 100% oil) and cocoa butter.
    I use papaya kojic and licorice base soap and cream which are


    available on line. Maybe it will work on you too.

    I'm bipolar and a mostly former cutter. They are two different things, but some people deal with both. My arms are pretty scarred, as is most my body, but I've gotten better at controlling the impulses. However, the desire is still very much there. I just don't want people asking questions or making assumptions.To the bi-polour sufferers. do you put scars on your arms? whether it is by knife or scratching?
    i used to, when i was in my down stage id cut myself and carve things into my arms and leg, usually about what ever put me down that far to do something like that. It helped me feel out what was in my head making me feel that way, it gave em the ability to address the problem because i could see it. Because of it I used to get a lot of looks and brought into the office at school for random checks of person and locker space for drug paraphernalia. It is really sad that people get looked down on because of their problems. Go to a Psychologist they will help you and give you uppers so you don't get so down to the point of cutting. Get a pet too they help keep your mood up so you don't flip as much, i got prescribed a dog :) Her name is Bubbles :)
    Nope, Im bi-polar not a cutter.
    He will heal the scars, inside and out!
    i am bi polar but i am not a cutter,two differant things
    no, i don't. but they are two separate diorders, that can often effect one person and not others.
    Bipolar and a person who cuts are to different types of problems- people whom have Bipolar do not necessarily cut and people who cut do not necessarily have bipolar-


    People who cut have some kind of a problem that they are usually trying to release so by the cut and seeing the blood flowing , the pain and the flow of the blood helps them to release the pain they are going through at the moment

    Whats the best over the counter treatment for scars (one that actually works)?

    I have keloids or raised scars. Mederma doesn't work. What's a scar product that i can get at the local grocery store that works?Whats the best over the counter treatment for scars (one that actually works)?
    Most over-the-counter treatments for scars are going to have the same ingredients in them - stuff that's normally used as sunscreen and a ton of Vitamin E. So it stands to reason that if you just treat the scars with sunscreen and vitamin E, you can achieve the same results. Bear in mind, however, that nothing is going to be a 'quick fix'. Most of these products are intended for use over the period of 6 months to a year.





    I've had luck with Prefer On. I have a lot of scalpel scars that are bright red and noticeable.Whats the best over the counter treatment for scars (one that actually works)?
    neosporin
    There's something called Scar-Gone or something with a similar name that is sold in the medication section at Walmart.
    Raised scars are actually called hypertrophic scars. You are correct that Mederma does not work. Most designer scar products are pure BS. The suggestion of lemon juice is the best answer yet since it contains citric acid, but there are a lot of other natural products that work as well or better.

That being said, if it they are very deep, discolored scars, don't expect it to work miracles and make them disappear completely. Also, try Neosporin scar strips. They use a type of silicon that helps make scars less noticeable. You apply them once or twice a day for 8 weeks I think. If all else fails, you can at least take care of discoloration with a bit of concealer. Hope that helps.

    Hs anyone ever used Striaex cream for acne scars and if anyone has, does it really work ?

    yeah tons!

  • How do I get rid of acne/pimple scars?

    You can get unsightly pimples due to two reasons. One is the impact of adolescence, the other reason is dead skin cells that refuse to shed and clog your pores, thereby not allowing the skin to breathe freely. In either case, the best solution for this problem is exfoliation. Make a mix of equal parts of olive oil and sugar and use this to scrub yourself in gentle circular motions all over your dampened body. Wash this off with herbal soap and warm water. Scrubbing in this fashion provides fresh and clean skin with open pores that help your body to evict toxins more effectively. Better circulation also helps to reduce oiliness of skin which is a major cause of acne. Make a face pack of dried and ground orange peels and yogurt and leave it on for about 30 minutes, or till it dries, and wash with water. Adding a few drops of lime juice to this mix will help in disinfecting your skin. If you have a large zit, you can make a thick paste of sandalwood powder and rose water and apply this to your zit. Leave it on till it dries and then repeat the process. This will take care of it fairly quickly. You can also make a mix of lime juice and black gram flour and apply this to your zit to remove it within a day or two. How do I get rid of acne/pimple scars?
    *If you must pop a pimple yourself, apply a hot, wet compress until it becomes a whitehead, sterilize a needle in flame or alchohol and then carefully lance it. Squeeze it gently to drain and wash both your hands and the area of the pimple afterwards.





    * Try changing your bath soap - many people have reported success with Ivory’s “Sensitive Skin” product.





    * Switch to a makeup that is not oil based. The oils can irritate your skin and clog your pores.





    * Wash makeup off every night before retiring.





    * Is it your birth-control pill? If you think so then ask you doctor about switching to another kind.How do I get rid of acne/pimple scars?

    As stated by the other person who replied, Mederma can help. Depending on the depth of the scar, further treatment may be needed, such as dermabrasion. Only a physician can tell what treatment would be best. While waiting to see a qualified physician, there are specialized cosmetics that can be applied over scars and birthmarks. Dermablend is such a product and at one time was available at Rite-Aid pharmacies. If the cuts are situational or occupational, perhaps a physician could recommend clothing that could protect the area.

    If you鈥檙e looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne鈥?prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.


    For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it鈥檚 advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.





    Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.


    Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

    well its sortah simple...if u want 2 go to ure doctor u can or u can try products from the drugstore. for ure blackheads i suggest u wash ure face really well and use stuff like ''clearisil blackhead cleanser''. N 4 ure scars u can simply go 2 the drugstore and find lotions that r able to treat scars for ex: if u had a cut u wuld use neosporin right?...right cuz it wuld help it the best person to ask this is ure docter.
    You need to use sunscreen to protect the scars from getting any worse. The blackheads can be removed with a special tool specifically designed to remove them, which you can get at a drugstore. Wash the sunscreen off your face every night to prevent further breakouts.
    Take it from me, kid, go to a dermatologist. You will regret it if you don't take care of this now! Later may be too late. A good dermatologist can help you prevent future (and often permanent!) scarring.





    I've tried pro activ and it seems I'm the only one who won't use it anymore. It worked for awhile but then it started to work against my skin so I stopped.





    Good luck!
