I had been using Apple Cider Vinegar for months and it didn’t really do anything, apart from making it look more inflamed. So I stopped that after about 5 months, and started to use Aloe Vera Gel 99.9% and its natural, use as often as you want. After only a few weeks I have noticed it’s flatter and smaller so Im really pleased, I’m hoping it will disappear completely. I would 100% recommend using Aloe Vera Gel its about £6 for 200ml size from any health shop. Hope this helps others that have a Seborrheic Karatosis

I have had a seborrheic keratosis just below my eye for a couple of years now. It started off looking like a small age spot but over the course of a couple of years it became very large and darker in colour and had a raised crusty appearance. I was becoming very self conscious of it as it really looked worse if I put makeup on it. After trying numerous remedies including ACV which just made it very sore and looked 100 times worse, I decided to try aloe Vera gel. As I had tried so many different remedies I really was not expecting any miracle cures whatsoever.

I started applying the store bought aloe Vera gel about 5 or 6 times per day. After about a week or 10 days I noticed that the keratosis had changed in appearance. It was looking much flatter and slightly blotchy. Being very encouraged by this I began applying the gel more often, up to 8 times per day or whenever I thought about it. I am pleased to say that after another week it is now very pale in colour, and has no raised appearance. I feel confident that with continued application of the aloe Vera that the seborrheic keratosis will go away altogether.

I understand that people have had great results with ACV and I am an avid fan of ACV for other purposes but I believe with a seborrheic keratosis on the face you can remove it much more discreetly with aloe Vera. Just apply and watch it fade away gently.
