Scar Reduction

Scarring can be unpleasant no matter where it is found on the body. Some can be uncomfortable as well as unsightly.
The best scar treatments I have been able to find are Vitamin E, honey and calendula (marigold). Vitamin E is well know for its healing properties and should be applied to a cut when it is healing to lessen the amount of scar tissue. The other thing that needs to be done is to have any dead tissue cut away or removed. That is the most effective way of scar reduction. (Consult a doctor for this.) Honey is less known as a healer for wounds and cuts but is being used more and more by the medical field due to its amazing history in healing. Honey has been used for thousands of years for helping to heal cuts, wounds and burns. Honey is something that can be used to minimize scarring after a burn.
Calendula, a flower that can be grown in your back yard, has been used for all sorts of skin conditions and is used in many scar creams as well as eczema creams.
Using a product for scarring that incorporates all of these ingredients can help prevent and lessen scar tissue.
Try a jar of Thentix: A Touch of Honey to help reduce acne scarring and tattoo scarring.
