How to Get Rid of Acne Scars Fast
1. Using Natural Remedies
a. Apply fresh lemon juice.
Lemon juice has natural skin bleaching properties, and can help to effectively lighten your acne scars. Simply combine equal parts lemon juice and water and apply this liquid directly onto your scars, avoiding the surrounding skin. Wash off the lemon juice after 15 to 20 minutes or you could put the the lemon juice on overnight as a mask.
Remember to moisturize immediately after washing off the juice, as the citric acid in the lemon can be very drying on the skin.
Lime juice, which also contains citric acid, can be used instead of lemon in a pinch.
b. Exfoliate with baking soda.
Baking soda can be used to exfoliate the skin and minimize the appearance of acne scars. All you need to do is mix one teaspoon of baking soda with two teaspoons of water to form a liquid paste. Apply this paste all over your face and use gentle circular motions to rub the baking soda into the skin, concentrating on the scarred areas, for about two minutes. Rinse off with warm water and pat the skin dry.
You could also use the baking soda paste as a spot treatment, applying it directly onto the scarred area and letting it sit for 10 to 15 minutes before washing off.
c. Use honey.
Honey is a great natural solution for clearing up pimples and reducing the red marks they leave behind. This is because honey contains antibacterial properties and helps to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation. Raw or manuka honey is the most effective. It can be dabbed directly onto the scarred area, using a q-tip.
Honey is a great option for those with sensitive skin, as honey is non-irritating, and will moisturize your skin instead of drying it out, unlike other treatments.
If you can get your hands on some pearl powder (it can be found in health stores or online), you can mix a pinch of it in with the honey for an extra-effective treatment. Pearl powder is supposed to reduce inflammation and fade acne scars.
d. Experiment with aloe vera.
The sap of the aloe vera plant is a soothing natural substance which can be used to relieve many ailments, from burns to wounds to acne scars. Aloe vera helps to rejuvenate and moisturize the skin, encouraging acne scars to fade. It is possible to buy aloe vera products in the drug store, but the best thing to do is buy an aloe vera plant and use the sap from a broken leaf. This gel-like sap can be applied directly on the scarring, and there is no need to wash off.
For a more intense scar treatment, you can mix a drop or two of tea tree oil (which promotes clear skin) into the aloe vera gel before applying.
e. Use an ice cube.
Ice is an extremely simple home remedy which can help to fade acne scars by soothing the inflamed skin and reducing redness. To use, just wrap an ice cube in a clean cloth or piece of paper towel and hold it against the scarred skin for a minute or two, til the area starts to feel numb.
Instead of freezing regular water, you can freeze some strong green tea in an ice cube tray and use the resulting ice cubes on the acne scars. Green tea has anti-inflammatory properties which complement the cooling effects of the ice.

Natural Skin Care - Smoothing Your Skin Without Make Up
Lately, I’ve been looking into ways to naturally even out my skin tone and fight acne. I’ve had acne for 10+ years (oh boy oh boy) and nothing I’ve ever tried has helped much. I’ve done Proactiv. I’ve done Clearasil. I’ve done Neutrogena. I’ve done prescriptions and I’ve done pills. I’ve done a lot. Not saying that these brands can’t work for others, but that they did not work for me. At all. Not even a little bit.
I don’t wear a lot of make up. I wear eyeliner and some mascara, and occasionally some light shadow and gloss/lipstick. I don’t wear any concealer or blush or anything else on my face, not because I don’t believe I need it, but because I’m usually allergic and I don’t like how it feels. That being said, I do have a lot of things I would like to disappear, and I can’t hide it with make up.
I’m not a “health and beauty” guro. I was never taught magic secrets to perfect skin, nor did I ever seek them out until recently. But I have finally found some things that work for me, and I can’t believe how fucking easy they are to use, and how inexpensive they are. Stop going to CVS, and start going to your grocery store.

The Impact of Acne in Social Life
I am doing some research on the impact acne has in the daily lives of the patients. Mainly Social and Sexual life. Until now i have found this very interesting study suggesting that there is serious damage in the relationships of the patients due to acne, have a look: Nobody likes Damaged Goods
If you have any story to report feel free to post it, privately or publicly whatever you feel better with. Show the post to a friend that might have a story to share with us.
Can you stop commenting on people's accutane posts and being a complete jerk about it. People are insecure enough about their skin without you tell them it's going to come back. Get off the accutane tag! Seriously.
Of course i can. But i won’t and I’ll tell you why.
Accutane is the most common and effective treatment of acne for short term results. After people have been cured with accutane they think it’s over, they have taken the pills and like the flu, acne now is gone.
But the harsh reality is different. Acne is a multifactorial disease and it can be triggered by a trillion things at any time.
A Review on isotretinoin (aka accutane)
It has long been recognized that long-term/permanent, treatment-free remissions in patients with acne can most often be achieved with isotretinoin therapy. White, et al reported a long-term remission rate of 39% after one standard course of 1mg/kg in 179 patients at 3 year follow-up.2 Recurrences required further isotretinoin in 19%, topical therapy in 17%, and oral antibiotics in 25%. Alonger term 10-year study in 88 patients by Layton, et al yielded a 40% “cure” rate with further topical therapy, oral antibiotics, and isotretinoin required in 21%, 16% and 23% respectively.1 Data analysis in both studies showed patients that received total cumulative doses >100mg/kg and 120mg/kg had significantly better response than those on lower doses.
Your chances of acne coming back are above 50%! Not very unlikely. Sorry, i didn’t liked it either. But it is better to know now, so you can prevent later. Most people learn this the hard way.
========================
The most common reason people develop acne is their environment. They eat and live in a way that their genes are not OK with. Their bodies respond this way to all they daily insults.
The only really effective solution is Healthy Lifestyle. End of story.
=======================
As for the comment i can’t recall in which comment you refer to but maybe i was too harsh to him/her. So next time I’ll comment i will be more positive, i promise. After all there is no need for acne to come back if you take the right precautions. ;)

Awesome!
Hydrogen peroxide is a widely used treatment for both acne and acne scars. But how effective and safe is it? Is it good for you?
A little bit of restraint, compassion, mediation and metta go a long way. Take some time to reflect on your day and try to improve yourself every day. If we are to change the world, we must first start with ourselves. Be open to criticism, even if it appears hurtful. There’s always a speck of...
