    Bio Oil is supposed to be good, you can get it in Boots.

    Most pharmacies seem to stock it. around E11-13 for a small bottle

    I have bad acne and have been using these Danné products for 2 years, my acne is alot more under control than it would be if i was on medication... no meds worked for me and if i wasn't so lazy and got the treatments more often my skin would be fine!!

    really, i absolutely swear by the products, i worked for the company that supply the products in ireland and my friend is the trainer, everyone in the company has perfect skin.

    if you look the website http://www.dannemking.com you can go to results gallery and see the difference made!!

    Anybody know of an alternative to Bio-Oil?

    I have a scar just above my eye and underneath my eyebrow, can't apply Bio-Oil as it leaks down into my eye and burns like feck! :(

    Use less ;)
    All you need is a tiny drop massaged into the area.

    +1 for the Bio-Oil, one of the best things on the market.

    Other than that, any vitamin E cream/oil will help, which is what's in the Bio-Oil plus some extra ingredients.

    I have a few scars near my eyes, although not from acne. I find that time is often the best healer. I did use Bio Oil, maybe it helped, but you won't see the difference immediately.

    Do you need to go for the treatments/facials in a beauticians as well as use the products to see results or would using the products alone make a meaningful difference?

    The treatments make a big difference yeah but in the last few months i've only had 1 and my skins been grand.. until i get lazy and don't use the products properly.

    If you see the guy that invented the stuff, think it's on the website, he's 60.... looks about 30. no cosmetic surgery done, have seen him when i worked where I did and he looks amazing, just from those products. he's actually the guy who invented the formula for Biofreeze and sold it off and is now a multi millionaire

    What does that have to do with scars?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1 QB1


    Does anyone know how long red acne scars take to leave? Not indentented one or anything like that just smooth reddish pink ones. I have been to a dermatoligist and they said it will take up to 12 monhts. Does anyone know either what they look like after 12 months or so? Are they almost invisible or still quite pronounced?

    Please could someone reply.
