Remedy for removing scar

Remedy for removing scar

A scar may or may not be removed completely, depending on its age, size and severity. However, it can be lightened considerably.

Onion Extract applied on the scar requires consistent use over several months in order to produce any effect.


Silicone, available as in gel form or rubber-like sheets, has been found to lighten and flatten scars over a long period of time.

Lemon juice is used to lighten particularly dark scars. First, clean the scar area thoroughly with water. Do not use any soap. Then, dab lemon juice over the marks. Leave it on for ten minutes, then rinse. Please note that lemon juice can make your skin more prone to tanning. It is essential to use a sunscreen on any area treated with lemon juice before going out into the sun. Baking soda can be used to exfoliate your skin. This will also help to reduce scars. Mix one tablespoon of baking soda with two tablespoons of filtered water. Rub this mixture on your scar for a minute and rinse. Apply warm olive oil to this area. Aloe Vera gel is also effective in lightening scars, as is cucumber juice. A paste of sandalwood paste with rose water helps fade scars. A daily application of honey is also effective.
