I got lots of scar all over my body, I guess my mother and siblings didn't take extra care of me when I was little plus the fact that I easily got wounded and I'm so clumsy. Now I suffer many scars from my legs to my arms you can add stretch mark and varicose veins, what a very unlucky lady I am. I never leave the house without wearing Jeans or any long pants to cover my legs, I'm so shy wearing shorts even at my bf. I've tried a product I found from FB, the product is expensive and requires my time which is I cannot give. I consume the bottle but there is no changes at my scar at all, if it's really effective, it should have even a little changes. I stop using that product. Now I am in search of a product to reduce or even make my scar gone. Do you have any suggestion or any herbal thing that will make a magic on my legs? As long as it's very effective I take the risk.

Yes, turmeric is hard to find, is it like turmeric powder? Thanks for the tip, I'll try the lemon but my scars I got when I was young so it must be almost 20 yrs. ago.

Oh, then you can buy cream that made from turmeric. There are many type of that cream in here also.
One more, you can rub fresh lemon on it before go to sleep and leave it over night and then i wash it in the next morning. With the time, your scars will be gone also.

Hi,
There is some medicine which is effective and there are few people I know which is vanished for ever after using the medicine. Also, it is not so costly and within a peirod of 2-3 months, all got removed from their body. Again, it is not costly also. The medicine is through Homoeopathy and it's less expensive. Only prolem, the medicine is provided by the doctor and we can't get it directly from the medical shop. Any way, if you are aware of any Homoeopathy doctor and please consult with them, they will give the medicine appropriately. Will you please keep your earlier avatar photo, instead of the one now appearing. Because, I make out the people from the photos only and not by the names, as I am confused with who is he/she...
Regards

Hi,
I will try to get the name of the medicine. The problem is that if we go to a homeopathy doctor, they will not prescribe the medicine and instead of giving the name of the medicine, they will provide the medicine by themselves. Some times they will give some bottle of 100 pills and they will add certain drops of the medicine into the pills. They never disclose the name of the medicine, as we may get it from the homeopathy dispensary. However, I will make some attempt to find out the name of the medicine and if provided, I will definitely share it with you. Also, I wll find out from my friend whether the doctor had given any priscription for it.
Regards

Hi,
I also have some dark scars, whitening or moisturizing lotion usually help lighten the scars but it doesn't make the them go away totally.
Hi thanks,
I'm interested in the homeopathy medicine that you mentioned.
Did you happen to know the name of the medicine?
Thank you and have a great day.

Hi mimiang, have you tried Dermatix? is it really effective?
@Kyel it's pretty expensive to consult a derma plus they will sell you an expensive product of them. As of now, I don't have time and money to go to derma but I will consider your suggestion in time. thanks!

If laser too expensive how about micro dermabration. Its not too expensive at least were I live you just need to go dermatologist and ask about it.
I think if your scar not to deep its will help because its exfoliate your outer skin and regrew new skin. Your skin will be pink for three month and you had to use sunscreen every time you go out. One of my cousin use this treatment to remove acne scar in her face and its work. Sometimes older woman used it to remove wrinkles.

I think here and in your place the price won't vary much around $30 to 50. I think if the case will much much easier and you don't have to buy sunscreen because you can wear jeans to cover it. Just go to your dermatologist and ask them about it and how much its cost you.

Hi friend I miss seeing your profile pic, reminds me of my lost dog. I think that's expensive plus I doubt if they do process at the legs part.

I have many scars also, I like to think of them as battle wounds. I personally take pride in my scares. The reason for that is all my scares have a story behind them.
I got a very long scare on my arm so very many years ago because of a fence I climbed, but now that scare is gone. It faded over the years. I just recently got a semi-scar from my sisters dog from playing with it. It'll probably fade in a few months, no matter.
Ok I'm weird!!! I enjoy my scars because they tell a story and make great conversation. I have scars on my legs (knees) arms, stomach and my heart. They all make for great conversation.
I would say enjoy your scars they tell a story. Just my thoughts about scars.

Yeah, that's positive thinking on scars, I don't mind scars from the upper part of my body, but I don't have the guts to show everyone my scars at my legs. Woman should have a flawless legs, aside from hair, this is our crowning glory too. I am so intimidated with seeing girls having beautiful and flawless girls. It's hard to leave with it and worst is it doesn't fade like yours.

I was reading a article the other,that give tips an how to remove scars.There are a few hope that it help good luck.There are different scar solutions available nowadays depending on the budget of the person. For low budget, you can go for gels, sheets to remove the scars but if you have the money to spend you can choose from the different types of surgery available to treat scars. You can choose from using steroids, collagen injection, laser surgery and resurfacing, radiotherapy, or dermabrasion. Each of these is being done by a medical professional only and the prices are really high although they are proven to be effective as well. On the other hand, the best scar solution an average person can use would be the silicone sheeting and gels.

Thanks for the info, indeed going to the clinic is very pricey, I can't afford it right now. I wonder if celebrities have scars too and do they have it rid or not.

WOW! Music to my ears, maybe she had a shallow scar, mine is too deep. Would mind telling me what clinic is that and how much did she pay?

I think whitening lotion can help and also a constant body scrub can help lighten but not totally wipe out the scars, the idea is for it not to get more darker under the sun. I have a lot of scars too but I started to use whitening and SPF products because I always on the single motor.

Turmeric will never hurt anyone's skin. It's being used as medicine for wounds and cuts for ages. And it's being used as a beauty product alongwith Sandal for thousands of years.
However, I'm not sure it would help in disappearing scars.

I think it is better to go for a laser treatment. but before you must meet specialist about skin disease. Ask him about laser treatment is suitable for your problem. Hope you get out from this problem soon. I further looking for solutions and will help you.

Laser is too expensive and it needs a lot of session, I still not consider it as my budget is tight but will look forward for discount or voucher.

Use Bio Oil, it helps to fade scars and stretch marks. It doesn't actually get rid of scars, but it helps them to fade. It's not too cheap, but I've used it before and it works quite well.
