For temporary results... rub ice on your face twice a day...it will help.

You can get spot correcting serums that focus just on acne scaring. I would recommend going to your chemist and asking.

Bio oil can fade scars away, but if I were you I would visit a dermatologist who can advise you what will get you the best results.

I do micro treatments at work ,yes it does fade scars very well but you can get rid of them on your own buy using AHA alpha hydroxy acid products and vitamin C serum and daily use of spf you can also use a retinol serum they all help to fade hyperpigmentation

I have been doing what Traci suggested - using AHA Alpha hydroxy products and a vitamin c serum and it has done wonders to my skin. The scars haven't yet completely disappeared but it's definitely a huge improvement from before :)

I've had really bad scars on my legs for years because I have dermatitis. What actually saved me was putting coconut oil on them twice a day. Are your scars old or new? New scars are a lot easier to fade naturally by using vitamin e oil and aloe vera. Older scars are a lot harder and you may need to go to the doctor to get a special cream. I found bio oil did nothing for me and I went through like 3 bottles of it. I love Mederma, it may take a few months to work but it definitely does work! They also just came out with a nighttime cream which looks good but I haven't tried it.

Thanks guys!!
@Shauna, they are like 2-3 months old. Actualy I'm afraid of trying any cream as my skin is acne prone, so I am thinking of microdermabassion.. Still thanks a ton dear for suggesting:)

I'd listen to anything @Traci says 😉 Also, aloe. Real aloe. Buy an aloe leaf and rub the inside pulp on your face. Not the most pleasant smell but it's REALLY good for the skin.

Vitamin E Oil is also known to fade and treat scars but spot apply as it could clog clean pores if you're very acne prone.
