Does Aloe help to get rid of scars?

Question

I got burnt by the oven a couple weeks ago and now it is almost all the way healed but leaving big scars and it is embarassing. They are on my arm and I feel like I can never wear short sleeve shirts again. Will aloe help to get rid of them?

Answer 1

Aloe helps the burn but pure vitamin E helps healing of the scars.

Answer 2

No Aloe won't but Vitamin E will help tremendously. Just poke a hole in the capsule and rub the oil into the skin. Also, Cocoa Butter is very good for scars.

Answer 3

If you have acne scars then get your dematologist to prescribe you Retin A. It really helped me. I used aloe vera few years back but i dint notice any difference. If you can't get Retin A then try using face wash or cleansers with Glycolic acid and AHA. Make sure to use sunblock when you go out in daylight because sunlight can also darken your scars. ( If you start using Retin-A, you CANNOT get pregnant since its not safe for the fetus)

Answer 4

ALOE;This plant is used to remove scars and protect from burns.There is one thing you need to know. To work a burn out you need to also work it from the inside.The way i work burns is.cool it down till the burn is gone.Then i use a moister lotion with vitamin E and aloe.as for the inside I eat fish that has oil base content ,milk, vegetable v-8 juice.This helps to restore the skin and anything left can be skin graft down.

Answer 5

Like the others said, vit E works good. But, what i found works even better is Mederma or go to your doctor and ask for a RX of Retin A-top(meaning cream). Use it 2x a day for about a month and the scares will basically disappear. But if you use Retin A-top, do NOT let the area be exposed to the sun!!! But it does work the best.

Answer 6

Coco butter or vitamin E oil
