Apply vitamin E (capsule) on scar about once a day and take 16000 IU of Vitamin A, 400 IU of Vitamin E, and a Vitamin B-Complex.

well,you should treat your skin from the aggravating acne problem.even if you still have the scars,at least your face will not become worse..about the girl thing,most girls do care how their boyfriend looks like.however,some are different.you just have to be a bit more confident and be true to yourself.so i wish you can get one in the future.good luck!=p

Try rubbing the areas with lemon juice every day, it helps fade the marks quite well...;

Aloe is only good when you apply it directly to the skin. Vit E also work well for fresh scar. For old scar (more than 3months old), try Centica 10g from a pharmacy. Much cheaper than other branded scar remover, about US$2 only per tube of 10g.

I have the same thing. I found that scar gel is very helpful. You can find it any pharmacy. Apply it for 2 months (or follow the instructions). They shoud disappear in time.

You could try Vitamin E oil... Whats more important than trying to make it look better, is to look at it as a reminder of how lucky you are to be able to worry about something as trivial (although it doesnt seem trivial) as a scar:-) Good luck!

tell him to keep neosporin and a band aid on it, or put vitamin E on it or natural aloe vera gel, these things promote healing and not a lot of scarring

I would rub in Vitamin E Oil the best you can afford,as that will help in reducing scar tissue...\n\nI know it's a touchy subject but what about going to chemist/drugstore and asking chemist his recommendations,\nbut would you be prepared to discuss this with chemist openly,?\n I admire you getting cut so late in life..Ouch..cheers

Mederma worked great on my face scar.  Plus, my doctor said to rub the scar while it's still pink (relativley new), I rub my scars w/Mederma or Vitamin E cream.  The rubbing makes them flatten out when they turn white.  So they are not one of those pooched up scars (it you tend to get that kind).

Cocoa butter, vit e oil or Mederma scar remover can be purchased at a drug store. Keep her out of the sun or well protected, this can darken the scars.  Good Luck

A lot of people seem to think cocoa butter helps with scars, blemishes, and stretch-marks.\n\nYou could try it.\n\nTest some on the inside of your forearm FIRST, to make sure it agrees with you.\n\nAvailable at most drug stores, OTC. Smells like CHOCOLATE, and what's wrong with that??\n\nGood luck.

I dont think you can get rid of scars overnight, try one of those home microdermabrasion kits to smooth out your face.\n\nanyways, check out the message boards on Acne.org, very helpful.

Acne scars can be minimized, but they usually never completely go away. Best to go to a Dematologist and they can recommend options to you. Usually they do chemical peels.

Try something called Mederma, you can buy it at your local pharmacy chain like CVS, Walgreens etc. If is made just for scars. Good luck dear. Also, available at Wal-Mart, Rite Aid and Targets. Look it up at www.mederma.com

try to drink more water and cut down on fried/fatty foods...\n\ni have a lot of acne scars too.  i use the calendula cream from jurlique...seems to lighten it a little...i recommend it\n\ni have not tried this but i heard use the strawberry seeds to scrub your face will lighten your scars too because it has some sort of acid that is good for that.

I had a really bad burn in 2003, and the scar is still a purplish color.  Burn scars are the worst and take a long time to heal.  Silvadean (sp?) is really good, but it is super expensive.  Another thing for bad scars is just to keep it out of the sun and elements.  During the summer, be sure to put lots of sun screen on it.  This is for a bad burn...I don't know how yours is.
