What to do about acne scars??  |
|
Guys.. do you have any natural or prescribed remedies for acne scars that have worked? I have some scars on my face that are similar to faded pock marks.. slightly darker or redder than my skin tone that I believe are scars left over from when i picked my pimples. Are there any ways to make them fade or return to my natural skin color? I heard lemon juice is useful. Is that true? What have you guys done?

dex1007 (306) | 4 months ago | mind you, its not something easy. calamine lotion sounds harmless right. its a thick white liquid that when you apply looks like you just applied a face mask. since my semester just ended, sitting in my room with a mask is fine, but you probably can't wear that and go out. haha. it also dries the skin awfully, making it really tight. it works for me, hopefully it will work for you too. good luck.

2. Weirdology (389) | 4 months ago | I do glycolic acid peels once a month at the dermatologist office. How soon you see results depends on how deep the scar is. It peels away a few layers of skin each time. So it is kind of speeding up our natural shedding process. In my experience, the darker the scar, the deeper it is and the longer it takes to get rid of. I had a big one that was really bad, a very dark reddish brown. It took about a year to fade to a light pink (I'm white). On the other hand, the smallest and lightest ones take one or two peels to go away completely.
It also depends on how often you do it. I do it once a month, but some do it once a week. The ones who use it more often tend to do it themselves instead of have a dermatologist do it. You can get glycolic acid on ebay and do it at home. I am thinking of switching to doing it myself because it is cheaper that way.
