Question by Lance Bloodbane: acne scars treatment? please help?
over the past few months i had a huge bunch of acne break outs around my temple and extending to my cheeks. i got a cream from the doctor, and it stopped all the break outs, my skin is once again acne free! yeye!
but, now i have a bunch of aftermath red dots and minor scaring from the break out. on the touch, there’s little difference between where the redness areas are and normal skin. but there are many of them, and they are really red and obvious.
my question is, does anyone know what they are? will those fade away naturally, if so how long does it take? does anyone know what other methods to employ and get rid of them quickly? if so what is it, and how can i get my hands on them? ( i live in toronto, canada)

Answer by C ok i suggest an exfoliating facewash and at night applying bio oil. it does work but be patient!! During the day apply an aloe vera moisturiser. The bio oil will make u look greasy skinned so i suggest u dont use that through the day.

Question by Zee Kay: What is the most effective treatment for removing hypertrophic acne scars?
Also, are there any creams which substitute for laser treatment, since laser can be a bit pricey.
Best answer:
Answer by pelican There are a few things you can try. Apply cocoa butter to the scars. Studies have shown that regular application of cocoa butter helps to fade scars more rapidly than some other creams on the market. Also, look for creams that contain naturally healing ingredients, such as shea butter, jojoba oil, castor oil and rose hip oil.
Try an over-the-counter medication such as Mederma, which is specially designed to treat scars. (Any cream that is designed to get rid of scars will work.) Healing time generally takes up to six months before any significant improvement will occur.
Talk to your dermatologist about Retin-A topical creams. These creams have been shown to greatly reduce the appearance of scars. Retinal creams encourages cell turnover. The new cells then take the place of older, scarred cells. Retin-A requires a prescription.
Start dermabrasion treatments. A licensed professional will use a dermabrasion device to treat the scars. Tiny crystals on the end of the device essentially buff away the top layers of your skin. With repeated treatments, you will see a noticeable improvement. Expect your skin to be a bit red and irritated after each treatment.
Have a look here. You will find dozens of recipes for homemade skin care products. You will find several that could help you with this. One thing you could try is a simple dermabrasion. Mix a little sugar with some olive oil and rub it into your skin. It should help.
