Acne scars can be healed and do fade. However, this requires time. So you should be willing to carry out the home remedies over a period of time.
The easiest remedy is the application of lemon juice. You can squeeze out the juice of a lemon and use a clean cotton ball to spread this over your scars. This will soon dry on your skin and should be washed off only after it has reached this stage.
You can also make a paste using sandalwood paste and rose water. This is a very soothing paste that works wonders on the scars left behind by acne. Again, this can be left on overnight and washed off in the morning.
A ripe tomato can be slice up and placed on your scars. Tomatoes are rich sources of antioxidants and the pulp helps refresh your scarred skin and renew it.
Massaging the skin with olive oil helps reduce the scars. Olive oil helps moisturizing your skin. This helps soften your skin and helps make the scars less visible. Honey is another natural moisturizer. For this reason you can either apply honey on your face in the form of a face mask or else consume it to ensure that your skin gets the best of its several qualities.
You can make an easy face mask by mixing one teaspoon yogurt, one teaspoon sour cream, one teaspoon oatmeal and some drops of lemon juice. This can be mixed well and applied directly on the scars. However you should take care to ensure that it is not left on your face beyond fifteen minutes. After this it should be washed off.
Tomatoes and cucumbers can be combined to effectively make a face mask that can help reduce the scars. You will have to extract the juice form a cucumber and mix it with the juice of a tomato. This can be applied on the scars and will work wonders in fading them. This face mask also helps in tightening your skin, giving your skin an even, smooth look. Fenugreek is another effective kitchen ingredient that can help remove cars. You can grind a handful of fenugreek seeds and apply this paste directly on the scars. The seeds can also be boiled in water. The water can be used to clean the scars. The whites of eggs are also effective ways of ensuring the scars fade. You can separate the egg white. Dip a cotton ball in the white of the egg and apply on the acne scar.
