Acne scarring home
treatments can serve as an
effective alternative to cosmetic and intrusive surgical
procedures in the treatment of mild to moderate acne
scarring. Before applying any of the following acne
scarring home treatments, bear in mind that some
acne scars due to their depth and size cannot be
completely eliminated. In some cases, it may take a
surgical intervention to significantly fade acne scars caused by severe
cystic acne or by inadequate treatment. This is the main
reason why it is so important to prevent acne in the
first place and to treat scars as early as possible to
avoid all the unnecessary agony and costs involved in
the treatment of acne scarring.
Another reason why home treatments for
acne scarring are more preferable than surgical
treatments for acne scarring and are recommended even by
several dermatologists and naturopaths is that
conventional acne scarring treatments such as laser acne treatments can cause
unwanted and sometimes permanent side effects and
irreversible damage to the skin. Thee are in fact
several natural home remedies, which are
excellent for treating mild to moderate scars and marks
and are also very cheap and can easily be found in your
own kitchen or in your local heath food store.
The following are recommended acne scarring
home treatments:
Lemon juice can be extremely effective
at lightening dark spots caused by acne. Simply cleanse
the mark or scar with a good antibacterial soap or just
water and dab one teaspoon of lemon juice into a cotton
ball and apply on your red marks and spots. Rinse after
ten minutes. Make sure you use a good sunscreen after
you have applied the lemon juice mixture.
Another great can scar home treatment
is baking soda. Baking soda functions as a homemade
microdermabrasion treatment. Simply mix one teaspoon of
baking soda with about two teaspoons of mineral water
and gently apply the mixture to your face and rub in
circular motion. Rinse after sixty seconds. This will
also leave your skin smooth and silky.
Cucumber juice, papaya skin and olive
oil are also very effective at treating marks and scars
left from acne. A highly recommended at home acne scar
treatment is using sandalwood and rose water. Simply mix
the two into a paste and apply the mixture on the
affected areas. Rinse with water after the mixture dries
on your face.
Some of the best home acne scar
treatments I have personally used with great success
were: MSM and Alpha lipoic acid. These will almost
completely remove those blotchy red marks
(post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation). Combine the
above with Rosa Mosqueta oil and antiseptic manuka honey
and you got yourself an beatable army to win your
battles against even the most stubborn acne scars.
Now that you know how to treat your
acne scars using simple and cheap home acne scarring
treatments, keep in mind that especially if you still
suffer from acne, the best practice for avoiding
additional acne scars and make your wounds heal faster
is to fix the internal cause of acne. The holistic way
has been proven to naturally neutralize the internal
environment that encourages acne formation. By
eliminating the possibility of future breakouts, you are
also preventing additional scarring. The wisest choice
would be to use the above acne scarring home
treatments while taking an honest effort to cure
and prevent future acne formation.
