Use Vitamin E For Acne Scars

Use Vitamin E for Acne Scars


Acne scars can be frustrating, if not disheartening. But research indicates that vitamin E can reduce the appearance of acne scars. The properties of vitamin E improve the look of skin by promoting antioxidant activity. Vitamin E is available in natural and synthetic form, but experts recommend the natural form for better skin absorption. Vitamin E can be purchased at most drug stores as a gel capsule as an oil or lotion.








Instructions


1. Take Vitamin E gel capsules once a day.


2. Puncture a Vitamin E capsule with a needle, and squeeze the oil into your palm.


3. Dab the oil on the affected areas of your face, typically scars on the cheek and forehead, and blend in downward strokes. Avoid eye contact with the oil by starting the application about ½ inch below the eye.


4. Use lotions or creams that include Vitamin E oil to improve the look of acne scars. Avoid lotions with mineral oil, which has been know to clog pores, causing more breakouts.
