M'kay...

So I'm doing pretty good with this weight loss thing. I feel better and I can even see some results. I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and be proud of my body. However, these body acne scars are bad. I mean like, crawl-uner-a-rock-and-never-come-out-again bad. Since it should be warming up soon, I want to make a commitment to get these things to at least fade to where they aren't as bad by summer.

Does anyone have any ideas to speed up the healing process? I don't want to do anything like chemical peels or other harsh procedures. Something simple and inexpensive maybe. I want to have good skin to go with a great body. Thanks to anyone who can help:)

    tanning! i have some stretch marks i HATE on my inner thighs and i have found that tanning makes them alot less noticeable! While it doesnt take them away or speed up healing (stretch marks never really fullly go away) it does make them less noticeable :]
    hope i was of some help!

    I don't know where you're from. But in the UK we have something called Bio-oil.

    From the website:
    "Bio-Oil® is a specialist skincare product that helps improve the appearance of scars, stretch marks and uneven skin tone. Its advanced formulation, which contains the breakthrough ingredient PurCellin Oil™, also makes it highly effective for numerous other skin concerns, including aging skin and dehydrated skin."
    http://www.bio-oil.com/uses.html

    I got it for some scars of another kind, and it didn't help, but if you can get hold of it, it might be worth a try.

    :smile: drink lots of water and eat plenty of green vegetables; this will show in your skin hair and nails. Eat rubbish and your skin will be rubbish.

    Hope this helps.

    I put apple cider vinegar on a cotton ball and wipe it over my (clean) face before bed at night, it clears my face a lot!
    I also use lemon juice to help with other scars on my body.

    hope it helps :)

    I actually made a toner for my face out of ACV and it works great. Lemon sounds like a good thing to use too. Thanks:smile:
