Cream to reduce scars?

[misstee]

Does anyone know of a cream or even some pills to help reduce scaring?

I have some scars on my face and I want them to go away! lol.

mederma

 

[CellyCell]

I use eskinol cleanser.

Retin A can help - depends on the kind of scarring.

try doing a search. there are tons of great threads on this already.

what type of scarring? do you mean you have A.) dark patches/pigmentation due to acne, or do you have B.)slight dents in your skin?

for A. you can use topical ointments such as Retin-A. its THE BEST at getting rid of those marks left behind by acne

as for B. you can try microdermabrasion. i've heard it can make a significant difference in the appearance and depth of the denting.

HTH...

Try ScarZone Acne Cream or Mederma. Also do exfoliation to renew skin cells

 

[chinadoll]

Mederma and Scar Zone peel away at your skin after a few applications, it might leave you worse than before. They will be peeled skin and then the new skin covers it thus more scarring. If you have hyperpigmentation then try Lumedia. If you have pits try microdermabrasion try Loreal Microdermabrasion.

that is something i didnt know.

 

[nelly]

it also depends on how old the scars are ...

By scarring, if you mean post acne red marks I recommend:

MICRODERMABRASION at home. Derm E and Mary Kay make some really good ones.

Also, definitely GLYCOLIC ACID products at 8% or higher. Neostrata glycolic line is the best!

I like glycolic acid peels for hyperpigmentation marks. I use the 40% from makeupartistschoice.com. I had some pits and for those the peels didn't do anything but I have seen big improvements since using Epidermx/Silkia camellia oil, both from goldportbeauty.com, and Green Cream from lindasy.com.

The pits look much shallower and on top of that the wrinkles are reduced and my skin has never looked so good. Now I go to work without wearing foundation, just some brush, eye liner and lip stick and I always get compliments from my friends, some of them even asked what "work" I had done. LOL.:moa:

I have also had good results with epidermx and silkia camiella oil. It has helped to fade my acne scars. Also I made sure I used sunscreen everyday. It took a couple of months but it worked out well for me.

I like the results I get from vitamin E oil on my scars.

 

[emily_3383]

Ive heard of vitamin E for scars but i havent tried it yet.

 

[Nessicle]

Bio oil is supposed to be very good

.: Bio Oil :.

 

[Kathy]

Pure Vitamin E oil was recommended to me by my Dr. when I had surgery.

 

[SimplyElegant]

Vitamin E ingested works very well but it takes awhile to notice results.

 

[chinadoll]

Be careful with glycolic acids. If they are too high of a percentage they can burn your skin and more scars. Use a light percent. For now try botanicals, natural stuff then upgrade to the chemical stuff. Microdermabrasion works by scrubbing off the top layer of skin so new one forms over.

what works the fastest?
