Aloe Vera for Acne Scars

Applying Aloe Vera gel to acne scars is a gentle and effective way reduce their appearance. Aloe contains a concentrated mix of enzymes, anti-inflammatory fatty acids, and compounds that boost the immune system. It encourages cellular regeneration, speeding the healing process, while reducing any lingering pain cased by swelling and irritation.

You might want to try Aloe Vera gel as a treatment for the after-effects of acne. It's anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory and it speeds cellular regeneration making it a great remedy for sensitive skin with acne scarring.

I exfoliate with baking soda then apply a mixture of niacinamide powder and 100% aloe vera (and if my skin feels dry a small amount of unrefined coconut oil) and my acne scars have faded drastically. I also rarely break out anymore. View Entire Thread

I have also been using aloe vera gel and it does really help minimize the appearance of acne scarring. I do not use the kind for sunburns, I use the highest percent of pure aloe I can find, with no perfumes or dyes. View Entire Thread

I have been using fresh aloe juice/gel/flesh topically overnight on my chest and back to try to heal scarring due largely to acne. I had been dealing with acne and scarring for months now. Just two nights of applying aloe liberally and directly onto my skin, letting it dry a bit, and then putting on a pajama top overnight has produced surprisingly good results. I am so relieved and amazed. I recommend this very simple, inexpensive, and natural method to everyone.
