How can I get rid of my acne scars without any drastic measures?

Question

I still have some acne, so it can't be anything that would irritate my skin. I was looking for a home remedy type thing, and I don't want to spend a lot of money. Any advice would be great!

Answer 1

you can apply lemon juice with honey and turmeric powder
or use honey and aloevera gel
above pack should be kept on skin for 20 minutes

Answer 2

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

ok I have 2 products to reccomend Neutrogena facial peel and vita k at home microdermabrasion kit. I am part Am. Indian and have persistant acne. Both of these products work really well and are relatively inexpensive for red/spots and scarring. I have used both of these products with breakouts and they didn't cause any extra irritation. I use proactiv and I swear upon everything holy this stuff is a miracle. My mom suffered with acne and her grandfather tol her to use sulfur on her face when she was younger (he was full blooded cherokee). The sulfur mask that proactive has really works! If you have a vaporizer at home, they work as well as they salon facial steamers. Just use it with 1/8 teaspoon salt mixed in with the water and without the inhalant. Hope this helps!

Answer 4

Anything with Vitamin C is good. It helps to reduce the appearance but will not get rid of a scar. You can take a couple of strawberries and mash them up, then apply to your face for about 10 mins or so. It's a great skin brightener!

Answer 5

Try CANDULA OIL,it has VITAMIN E in it....
Buy a small bottle,drop about 20 drops into a bottle of body lotion and apply it on your skin 3-4 x daily.
Over time the scars and marks will diminish slowly but visibly.

I've been advised to do the same thing,just started it about a week ago though,so I couldn't tell you if it works or not!

(They sell Candula oil at WAL*MART,CVS and Walgreens,
it should be in the section for skincare/first-aid or vitamins).

JUST ASK A ENGLISH SPEAKING PERSON AT THE STORE!

GOOD LUCK!

Chemical facial peel, that is the most effective treatment for acne scar. It works by peeling off a thin layer of skin that carried the scarring and by doing that, the scar will gradually fades away.
