So are you referring to an oral treatment?
Salicylic Acid is found in strawberries, tomatoes, and other foods, I've read it's harmful to consume when pregnant.. not when applying on skin... applying it to your skin won't do anything and there has not been any studies done to prove that it is harmful to your fetus when applied on the skin..

Most brands use Salicylic Acid or Benzoyl Peroxide, Tea Tree Oil and other essential Oils work great but you don't want any natural remedies and most brands use either or. Perhaps you are better off asking a dermatologist what you can buy without Salicylic Acid?

This is the only info I have found regarding it, maybe it can help you.

Most oral acne treatments are not advised during pregnancy, and should be avoided. You may also have some concerns about the safety of topical acne creams during pregnancy.

Obviously, you want your baby to be in perfect health when he or she is born, and you avoid activities that could put your baby at risk, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and the use of prescription and non-prescription medications. Topical acne creams are applied to the skin, but can be absorbed through the skin, and enter the bloodstream.

However, the amount of topical acne cream during pregnancy that is absorbed through the skin is quite minimal. The most common active ingredients that may be found in topical creams are: benzoyl peroxide, hydrocortisone, salicylic acid, erythromycin, clindamycin, sodium sulfacetamide, tretinoin, adapalene, and azelaic acid.

The majority of these ingredients have been scientifically proven to be safe to use topically during pregnancy, however, there are risks associated with the use of some of these medications. Topical creams that contain sodium sulfacetamide should not be used during the later stages of pregnancy. Studies have found that this can lead to newborn toxicity, resulting in anemia, jaundice, and kernicterus. Studies show that it is safe to use this medication, topically, during the first two trimesters of pregnancy.

I use vitamin e oil, it works on all types of scars. I just burned the side of my head with a curling iron last week, and the mark is already gone.
