  Hello...
  
  your problem made me qrius (harhar) so i did a quick search. the best i found was to apply lemon juice on the scar and cucumber juice. the PIPINO juice must always be freshly squeezed and you need to leave this on your face overnight. do this every night until the scars fade. the lemon, well it says you just apply it on the scar and not your whole face because it stings.
  
  the object is to lighten your scars and these are two of the more effective natural remedies.
  
  the lemon juice is actually used as soon as you prick the pimple or acne. clean the pus and blood first (siyempre hugas ka muna ng kamay) then apply juice on cotton balls to put on the acne. it'll prevent the scarring daw.
  
  hope this helps.

  The only thing that worked for me is useing a facial scrub and then after washing my face i would use Maderma Scar Cream .Maderma scar preparations show results over a series of 7 weeks and the results are dramatic. It can be purchased over the counter without a prescription at local retailers for about $30. I used the name brand until i found the off brand at wal-mart. I got it for $8 a tube and it works just as good.
  i hope this helps!

  hi qrius! nice name!:-)
  
  thanks for the tip..i'll do that...
  but do you have any idea what to do for
  those deep marks? they're no longer
  colored, but they leave holes...
  
  
  hi hotmom! thanks, too, but we don't have
  walmart in the Philippines. :-( and wouldn't
  know the equivalent....but thanks anyway.:-)

  Maybe you can use sillicon. My husband uses it for the scars he got from his amputation and it is working miracles. He puts it on at nighttime and you can see difference overnight. I'm not sure if you can get it a chemist or anything, cause he gets it from the occupational therapist. But you can always ask at a chemist, maybe they can help you out.

  I have this product. Antioxidant spray. If you want. It works on acne as well as scars. My measle's scar is gone already, Completely.
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  rosking: silicone? really? like a cream? oh i will really
  ask our retail druggist about it. thanks for the tip!:-)
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  ayinkurie: i'm using ponds antioxidant skin whitening
  cream. it's okay for most parts of my face, but i'm not
  sure if it's working on my scars...maybe it's working
  but i've been using it for quite some time, but the
  dark spots are still there.
  
  where did you get yours? what's the brand?
  
  by the way, i presume that the holes created
  long ago could not be remedied by these means, right?
  
  thanks for all your help!:-)

  Sorry, I doubt if any of the treatments suggested so far will work. The only one I've seen work is a sort of skin peeling treatment. I think it was done with a laser and it's expensive. I suppose you have the option of special make up for scars, that will at least hide them. Maybe other things will too. It's worse for guys. we just have to work on developing a charming personality to compensate! lol I'm lucky I'm romantic, caring, and English! But you seem to have some charisma - work on that.
  

• Mike10613 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  I just wrote that and Google had the acne laser treatment advert up as soon as I'd finished. It costs £225 in Cambridge - not that expensive really. but it looks like it makes your face really sore - when I saw it on TV! But I probably made 10c or something when I clicked on the advert! lol Every cloud has a silver lining!

• secretlife said on Sep 01, 2006....

  Isn't the laser treatment permanent? You might want to think about that because I don't think anything will get rid of deep scars.
  
  I'm sure you've already figured out ways to use make up to hide them.
  
  It all depends on how important it is to how you feel. I think it's important to be comfortable with how you look.
  You seem comfortable to me, but only you really know what's inside.

  I seldomly have pimples but when I got one, it leaves a round mark but doesnt leave a deep wound.
  
  I usually use a toning facial wash, eskinol and a pearl cream.
  I think Pearl Cream really works for me. I'm using MCA Pearl Cream with collagen and Vit. E
  
  You can buy it here at around Php150. Which you can use for about 2 months.
  
  Also the deep wound can be lessen by applying a mask. Cucumber mask, or any other types...you may avail some in AVON.
  
  In order to smoothen or flatten the deep wound...use facial wash that's capable of tightening the pores.
  
  I suggest you must have a regular facial cleaning and make sure that every cleaning, avail the mask. Seaweed mask are for oily faces. Collagen Mask....etc. Visit Let's Face It
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  hi mike!! wow!!! i'm in the Philippines so 225 of your
  money is almost the cost of a personal computer!
  hahahaha if that's how much it's gonna cost, well
  i guess i will stick to lemon juice...hahaha at least the
  colored areas will be minimized.
  
  but hey, thanks for the suggestion on working with
  charisma...haha thanks pal!:-)
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  btw, i tried SUBSISSION. It's actually a technique that
  they dermatologists do. they make punctures on the
  scarred area (that was previously injected with
  anesthesia) and intentionally make the wounds. this
  is supposed to gather collagen into the area and the
  depressed area of the skin will swell up. when the
  swelling subsides it is hoped that the area will heal
  evenly as with the rest of the skin.
  
  my derma tried it on 3 of my deepest scars, it did
  come up a bit, but the process is tedious and the healing
  is very long. Plus, the area gets discolored again
  and i have to use bleaching once more...
  
  it's actually a lot of effort...
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 01, 2006....

  mr right: where do you get the MCA face cream?
  is it available at Robinsons mall? im in the provinces...
  right now, i use ponds...
  

• mr_right14 said on Sep 02, 2006....

  Oh! I buy it from a friend. It was initially introduced to me by my Girfriend and gave me a box of it. Enough for 1 yr.
  
  I assume it is available in malls and drugstores.
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 02, 2006....

  oh,okay! hahaha i'll check it out. thanks pal!:-)
  

• mr_right14 said on Sep 02, 2006....

  try to have a moisturizing cream.
  I use POND'S moisturizing cream and I apply it at night.
  
  It smoothens your face and it could help flaten your deep wounds.

• sigroid75 said on Sep 03, 2006....

  oh yeah? thanks! i have a new pimple today...hahaha
  
  u seem to know a lot about beauty treatments and
  products.:-)
  

• mr_right14 said on Sep 03, 2006....

  Using some beauty products doesn't mean that you'll get what you expect or from what the product says.
  
  Some products works on other people but not on you or not on me. Choose a product that really works on you. We do have different skin types. Have one that really suits you.
  
  There are instances, one used a facial cleanser but it get worse! He/She had more pimples than preventing it. But on the others, it lessened the pimples and prevented it.
  
  Hey I'm a straight guy. Don't think I'm a gay if I know a lot of these. Hehehe
  
  Try this one...
  A clear Eskinol the 100ml bottle and a drug DALACIN C 50mg. Open the capsule of the drug and pour the contents into the eskinol.
  
  About your pimple:
  Never amputate your pimples. It might get worse. Always see a specialist.

• sigroid75 said on Sep 03, 2006....

  hahaha i'm not saying you're gay mr right! hahaha
  we all have different interests. thanks for your beauty
  tips...i've tried the eskinol-dalacin C combination, it's
  irritating on my skin though.
  
  yes, we all have different skin types. i'll try to keep
  my face clean and use some nice products that suit me.
  i'm not getting any younger, so i'm getting concerned,
  too...hehehe thanks again!!!:-)
  

• mr_right14 said on Sep 03, 2006....

  THANKS for that...
  
  Getting old doesn't mean we have to work on other things and forget about ourselves.
  
  Stress from work, responsibilities, problems, etc...
  
  We're getting older and the more attention we need on our health and beauty.
  
  Oh sad...same with my auntie. She got irritated on it but on her siblings, it worked well.
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 04, 2006....

  that reminds me, as soon as i get some extra
  bucks, i'll get that massage i've been wanting
  to have for more than a month already...hehehe
  
  i'm due to go to the dentist, too...hahaha maybe
  if we have more adsense income, no? hahaha
  i can get weekly massages and facials...hahaha
  

• mr_right14 said on Sep 04, 2006....

  I really wish AdSense will do something good for me and for my blog hehehe.
  
  Mr_RiGhT
  

• sigroid75 said on Sep 04, 2006....

  it's not adsense, but soulcast....oh well, it's
  just that they are sharing their income with us.
  unlike other sites, they are the only ones earning.
  i think that soulcast people are already generous.
  let's just do our share to make our site read.:-)
  

• Paul79SoFL said on Jul 01, 2008....

  Have you ever tried the Mederma skin care for scars cream. I used it after I had shoulder surgery and it stinks like onions but really helped fade my scar.
  
  I've also read about a collagen drink that is supposed to help your skin look more youthful. I haven't tried it though.
  
  Good luck :)

  I just checked the price of Mederma in the UK £24.30 for 50 grams - a bit expensive. Those deep holes get dirt in them and a facial scrub can make them clean and less visible. I was told toothpaste is good for this and less expensive - it is of course also anticeptic. Putting toothpaste on a zit and letting it dry to kill off bacteria I'm told is effective too. But remember there are worse things. I just came out of hospital after an attack of acute pancreatitis - virtually no food for a week and I'm still on morphine - so I suppose we have to keep things in proportion. There is a vaccine for the bacteria now for acne too available in London. You may have to sell a kidney to pay for it though! lol. Incidentally, adsense do pay out - I've never had any from anything on Soulcast - only websites and a little from Blogspot.

  Cleaning and only cleaning! SpaLotions in the morning and scrub + night cream in the evening. Sure, pay attention on food you eat. Some products can cause allergy, redness and camedones. Cosmetological consultant will always instruct you about your skin types and if you see any problem, trust professionals. They know more and will always be able to tell you if your problem is connected with health of just skin care products.
