I don't know what kind of scars you have but, I normally use cocoa butter and vitamin E oil.

Acne scars r hard to remove, a dermatologist can do laser treatments etc... but b4 u go that route... can I suggest u try ProActive. The more u use it, it seems to heal the face and prevent further outbreaks. Scar tissue seems to fade and your entire complexion along with plenty of water and balance diet seem to do the trick.

Then invest in mineral base foundation to camouflage any imperfections. Like say Sheer Cover or Pure Minerals.
The most important thing is reduce further acne outbreaks. Have a good skin care cleaning routine.

Mederma (sp?) helps scars too... but it doesn't rid them. The small tube is about $14 at Walmart or local discount store.

hey i am going through series of glycolic peels to get rid of my acne and chickenpox scars.They do work i see a difference already.my face is smoother but going this route is costly and inconvenient.my skin is practically falling off my face(in a good way)but you have to schedule your life around it.i will also be doing some microdermabrasion and laser treatment as well.the scars will never fade completely but your face will be much smoother.Unfortunately there is no quick fix and it will take time...until somebody comes up with a miracle....till then talk to a dermatologist.

To remove scars try Mederma. It takes awhile and costs about $25 for a tube but it does work.

I use phyto+, it's a small vial of green liquid with a dropper that you can only get from a dermatologist. Scars anywhere on the body is visibly lighter in a month's time.

i'm assuming you meant scars?

they make patches for that now. they stay on for about a week and help to make scars less apparent. they do cost around 30-35 dollars. but they work pretty well. you can find them at most drugstores.

Try Bio Oil. You can get it off the internet or in places like boots. Not cheap but it goes a long way. You need to persevere as it does take a few weeks to see results but it really works.

This cream is supposed to be very good. You can also pay privately for laser removal but this is very costly as you usually have to go private, unless you are referred by your doctor dependent on the actual scar. You usually cannot get cosmetic surgery on the NHS unless there is a very good reason.

visit a plastic surgeon for more advice but i have heard that micro derma abrasion is good or a gycolic peel which are very good for lines and some scars.
