Trying to fade a scar

lindsayp · Kenneth Cole

I've heard that Vitamin E oil or Emu oil works well...

Mederma - its a little pricey but its a miracle worker

I saw there was a post started already for someone who was going into surgery...but do you ladies have any reccomendations for pre-existing scars? I was bad and picked a pimple. I have been putting neosporin on it for a couple weeks now but its still there. I'm grateful for any advice. Thanks!

I need advice too! Every time I get a pimple, doesn't matter if I pick it or not (I usually don't), I'm left with a red mark.

Same here - and I have KP on my arms, and no matter what I do I get scars all over. It's getting bad. Ugh. I bought a thing of scar lotion a few weeks ago, I don't know if it's working yet.

It seems to have faded a *smidge* by just leaving it alone. I'll try the vitamin E oil since that isnt too exspensive.

Why cant there just but miracle creams for all our beauty woes? haha

Ugh, me too! I must have scar-prone skin, because any time I get a cut, a pimple, KP, whatever... it leaves me with a scar. No fair!
