Solu­tions for Acne Scars

Once acne’s been inflamed, then heals, it leaves behind acne scars. These scars can stay for years if they’re not treated.  They can be min­i­mized by “skin light­en­ing” prod­ucts, and can be removed by growth of new skin lay­ers, which pro­duces col­la­gen.  Acne scars result from the skin layer’s inabil­ity to pro­duce enough col­la­gen to repair it.  This is where acne scar removers come in.  They can work very quickly dur­ing your skin replen­ish­ment, and essen­tially lighten up the scarred skin. I’ll review some solu­tions for acne scars includ­ing nat­ural meth­ods of scar removal, and acne scars prod­ucts and creams.

Acne scars are char­ac­ter­ized by their size, shape, and appear­ance.  They’re clas­si­fied as “early” or per­ma­nent scars, depend­ing on how long you’ve had them.  More recent scars can respond to top­i­cal med­ica­tion a lot bet­ter than older scars.  Most scars can be treated by a com­bi­na­tion of top­i­cal solu­tions, and there are sur­gi­cal pro­ce­dures such as laser acne removal, that height­ens skin resurfacing.

There are many acne scar treat­ments avail­able today.  I will out­line some of them, and other alter­na­tive ways to remove them.

Nat­ural Meth­ods of Scar Removal

Although this may take longer than some top­i­cal med­ica­tions and sur­gi­cal pro­ce­dures, it won’t dam­age or irri­tate your skin any more than it already has been, because it only uses nat­ural reme­dies and elements.

Water:  An old anal­ogy, but True!  If you drink eight glasses of water a day, it does help min­i­mize acne scars, because the skin needs mois­ture to remain smooth and flex­i­ble. It also helps the skin’s renewal process.

Aloe Vera helps con­di­tion the skin like above, as well as reduce pain nat­u­rally heal burns, cuts, etc.

Honey used reg­u­larly will help break up the scar tissue.

Vit­a­min E:  You can break a Vit­a­min E cap­sule open, and rub it on the scar gen­tly for 30–60 sec­onds to break up the scar tissue.

Veg­eta­bles & Fruits:  Veg­eta­bles like car­rots, cucum­ber, spinach, and fresh fruits help com­plete skin health due to the vit­a­mins and min­er­als in them. Use an onion slice or onion juice on the scar.  Lemon juice will help dimin­ish the dark­ness and appear­ance of the scar.

Essen­tial Oils:  Tea tree oil, Laven­der oil, and Lemon oil are all nat­ural essen­tial oils that help acne scar reduc­tion.  They’re used to cleanse the skin and remove dead skin layers.
