Natural Acne Scars Remedies - Common
Sense Prevails
While some cases are mild, other
cases are quite severe and can lead to visible scarring. So, not only do these
people have to suffer through a bad outbreak of acne, they then have to live
with the scars for the rest of their lives. The answer to that is no they
don't, or at least they can try any number of acne scars remedies that will
minimize the scars that are there. One of the best known remedies for acne
scars is citrus juice. You can apply the juice of a lemon or lime directly to
the problem areas. However, some people find that pure citrus juice irritates
their skin, so you may want to try different dilutions until you find the one
that's best for you. It can take quite a while, but if it just doesn't seem to
be working for you, then you can try other acne scars remedies.
A lot of people swear by olive oil
for making their acne scars less visible. Simply massage the oil into the scar
and the surrounding area, and let it sit. This helps to soften and moisturize
the skin which can help diminish the visibility of acne scarring.
Here's a natural remedy for acne
that you may not be familiar with: tomatoes! That's right. Tomatoes are high in
Vitamin A which keeps the body from producing too much sebum, which is the
substance that is largely responsible for acne to begin with. Tomatoes are also
rich in antioxidants which are beneficial for repairing the skin.
One of the most soothing acne scars
remedies is a mixture of rose water and sandalwood. Simply add a few drops of
the rose water to the sandalwood until it is at a paste like consistency. You have
to be more careful if you are currently experiencing an acne outbreak, as you
shouldn't let any foreign material (such as any of the above ingredients we've
talked about) get into the sores. While a lot of people have found success with
the above acne scars treatments, you should always consult with a qualified
medical professional before doing anything that has to do with your health.
