Does coconut oil work for dark spots on the face from sun damage or acne spots.

No, I'd try a spot treatment or pure shea butter.

Not really it's mainly used to lock in moisture which may help your skin heal a tiny bit faster - but I would suggest pairing a BHA exfoliant with a vitamin c serum - also wear SPF every day at least 15 but preferable 30+ - that's how I dramatically faded my acne scars - you can check out the photos in my profile for before n after pix - I had results within 2 weeks.

Personally I found it did work for me. I had dark scars all over my legs because I've suffered from dermatitis my whole life and I would always scratch my legs which left me with scars all over. I was always so self conscious because people would always stare if I wore shorts. I heard great things about coconut oil and decided to try it. Within a couple months I noticed a dramatic difference in the fading of my scars. Most of them are gone now but some are still faintly there.

Coconut oil has a tendency to break some people out so just be careful! I know it works great for lots of people but it could break you out.
