  1. Use your aloe, cocoa butter, and Mederma! Haha, you took all my ideas sweetie!! Just stick with it…it might be 4 weeks before you see results. I know that’s not what you’re wanting, but there could be so many worse things than a scar. All you can do is just try to take care of it and be patient. = ) Good luck.

  2. put Vitamin E oil on your skin where the scar is twice a day. it wont disappear instantly but over time.

  3. THough probably the simplest, use cocoa butter. Massage it (don;t just rub, really massage it) into your skin 3 times a day and if you can get a body wash that also has it in it. If you don’t want to buy any thing else, mix 1/4 cup cocoa butter with 3/4 cup regular body wash, shower with it, or soak in the tub.

  4. I’ve always used vitamin e oil and have had good results on myself and my kids. I would avoid the sun though…if you burn the new skin, it will probably leave a dark blemish.
    Good luck with it and give it some time…you can always use a cover-up make-up to help hide it if you have the need.

  5. use Mederma- my little sister had a scar on her chin and it faded it really well. i tried using it on me, but i must be allergic becasue i was really itchy!! definately try it bc it works :)

  6. this not for points. scars can be helped with surgery and time. I have a burn scar on my hand and no one hardly sees it. My tummy is a diffirrent matter because i gained and lost 90 lbs. I am thin, but the loose skin can be lost by the best doctor in San Diego

  7. try something called Bio-Oil. My friend tried it to reduce pregency marks and she said it worked wonders on her. It runs from 12 dollars to 20 dollars depending on what size and where u are getting it from.

  8. Arbonne skin conditioning oil and rejuvenating cream

  9. Depends where the scar is. TATTOOS

  10. use lotion and mederma!

  11. You may be using too many products on the scar. First rule-Never, never, never go into the sun without the highest SPF sunscreen possible. DO NOT GO TO TANNING. It will become worse! The sun can make the scar more red and tend to lengthen the healing time also. It can also go into skin cancel. It has to be well protected. Try a little of the vitamin e, especially at night, and lay off the other for a while. If it seems that it is not healing properly, make sure that you go back to the doctor. Especially if it appears not to be healing or if you see any yellowlike pus on it
    Happy Healing!
