Acne Scars





What is happening?



Millions of people suffer from acne and acne related issues. Everyone’s reason for getting acne is different but whether it be stress, poor diet, hormones, poor hygiene, environment, etc., many are left with scarring, especially when acne breakouts penetrate the skin deeply.

When the healing process begins and the acne clears, the body tries to repair the damage. During this process the body releases collagen, a substance that gives support to the skin. Too much (raised acne scars) or too little (depressed acne scars) collagen the body produces can affect your skin and will leave scars.



So what do we do?



Of course the first step is figuring out the cause of your acne. There is no point in healing your acne scars only to keep breaking out with new bumps. Hormonal acne is something deeper and can’t just be treated overnight but should be handled by a dermatologist and/or doctor to test for it. The goal is to have clear skin.

Now, using over-the-counter topical treatments like benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or Sulphur can tend to dry the skin out. This can make your acne bumps look sore and red since the active ingredients can slightly burn the top layer of your skin when used daily. So then the real goal becomes to have clear skin naturally and that’s what this site is about.



What are we about?

This site is dedicated to natural solutions for your acne scars. As someone who has suffered from frequent breakouts and was left with deep scarring I know all about the over-the-counter products because I've tried them all, and nothing really worked for me. I started researching natural solutions and as someone still going through the journey, I’ve noticed a huge difference. Not only are my scars fading and have faded, but most importantly I’ve maintained my breakouts to one to no pimples in months.



There are many everyday products available in your home which can be equally effective treatment in your fight against acne. Some of these common household products which could help treat acne are salt, lemon, honey, vinegar, turmeric, cinnamon, and various fruits and vegetables. These can be mixed all up to make pastes or facial masks. Using natural products are great because they are healthy, inexpensive, and accessible since most of the products should be in your pantry already.

On this site we will highlight natural foods and oils for lightening up scars and feature natural homemade mask for soft glowing skin.
