the best way to get rid of scars is to get some of those 3m burn pads - you know the jelly ones and put it over the scar for a couple of hours - usually overnight if you have the time. it plumps out the mark and in a few days poof it is like you never had a mark there - we did this for my mom after her car wreck one of the nurses told us about it and it totally worked - you can barely even tell she had huge gashes in her face! she was so worried about taking photos for the wedding - and noone could even tell she had been in a wreck.

Products with retinol or alpha hydroxy acids can helps with the marks. Neutrogena has a couple and the Lancome Resurface line works.

I use the vitamin e capsules for all scabs, scars, and burns. Just pop the capsule and put the oil on- it really works well.

Neutrogena makes a product called Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel that has worked really well for me.

I had a mark on my chin from Sophmore year of High School and it's gone now! And I'm really fair-skinned.

It's been a great product for me and it's only $15 at CVS.

I know I sound like an informercial, but I really do love it!! Chat Icon
