i have some on my arms and legs and would like to get rid of themWhat can help get rid of scars? What medications do you reccomend?
There are a variety of ways to diminish scars naturally and with the assistance of chemicals. Some natural remedies with bleaching properties include:


lemon juice (ask like a skin peel, removing dead skin)


honey (which helps kill acne causing bacteria)


vinegar (which works like a skin peel as well)


cocoa butter


aloe vera gel (especially on new wounds)


cod liver oil


alpha hydroxy lotion (which sloughs away dead skin)


Exfoliation is a big part of reducing scars too.





Chemical bleaching agents (fade creams) include products like:


';Ambi';


';Esoterica';


';Artra';


';Black and White';


';Palmer's skin cream';


';Dermisa';


';Nadinola';


All of these products usually contain the main ingredient, hydroquinone which actually does the bleaching.





Also, vitamin E is widely thought to help diminish scars but will actually rather ';improve'; the scar by reducing inflammation, and hydrating the scar- in turn softening the scar.





And remember to use sunscreen. The sun can QUICKLY reverse the effects of the bleaching products as well as just darken untreated scars.What can help get rid of scars? What medications do you reccomend?
