If you remember my pimple that's forming into a scar , you know that you recommended me merderma. I'm not going to the store in a while and I'm not sure if they sell it anywhere near me. But if that time being, could I use bio oil on my acne scar? Or olive oil? Or lemon to fade the scar? Thanks!!

Lemon and turmeric are natural lightenera.

I have seen this don't lemon on your face a lot, well I used to mix lemon oatmeal and water every other day, and when I was consistent with it it helped my acne scars tremendously

I have tried lemon and it doesn't fade your scares. Like Jacqlyn said it's really harsh on skin. Or at least it is if you just use lemon and now mix it with anything else.
Maybe try coconut oil, I think I've heard that will work.

Mixed with a basic substance, lemon won't be too harsh for the skin (base cancels acid; yay chemistry!) Bio oil contains mineral oil so if you don't want to risk a breakout, it will be advised to stay away from it :), olive oil is a sealant oil and won't do anything but trap moisture so I don't think it will actually help.
I was actually able to clear up a majority of my 5+ years of scarring in a couple of weeks using the oil cleansing method every night. I, personally use a mixture of castor, sweet almond, and neem oil and it has evened out my skin tone and prevented breakouts! :)
I have also started using lemon essential oil in my lotion. Add 4 - 6 drops into 1 oz of your favorite lotion (don't add anymore than that, as lemon eo is phototoxic so you need to make sure there isn't too much because you don't want to accidentally bleach your skin) and use it every day. This too has done WONDERS for my sensitive, acne prone skin :) I know I'm not Traci but I thought I would share, I hope this helps :)

Hey hun I would just use aloe or pop open a vitamin E capsule and put it on but exfoliating and using spf daily will help ,if you see you have a raised scar ,meaning it has scar tissue because it was a little infected and not just a regular pimple mederma will help flatten it out ,but I don't recommend any of those other things ,none of them will help flatten the surface of a scar or reduce scar tissue,if it's just a darker area left behind and not raised up ,exfoliate,vitamin c serum and spf ,I don't know how old you are but if your under 18 skip the vitamin C and get aveeno positively radiant spf 30 moisturizer it contains soy complex so you can lighten up pigmentation while your protecting your skin
