    Has anyone here any experience of treatment for acne scars, as in pock marks...such as laser treatment or glycolic peels etc? I've been living with pock marks on my cheeks for years now and I want to try and improve the appearance of my skin before my wedding next year. I don't get spots anymore but they've left their mark and for some reason lately they're really starting to get to me more than they ever did, I feel like they're getting worse :(

    Boi-Oil is probably cheaper. I have bad acne scars as well on my cheeks but I've been using Boi-Oil daily for a few months now and I feel like they're not as noticeable as they used to be.. Makeup helps as well. I found Benefit's Porefessional and I love the way it feels on my skin and it does make all my little pock marks look smaller. You can always go to a dermatologist and they'd recommend whatever they think is best as well.

    Thanks, I tried Bio Oil religiously for a year and didn't see any improvement. Make up can only cover so much, you can still see the dents under the make up unfortunately :( But thanks for your reply :)

    You can buy vitamin e capsules and if you split them open and rub the oil that is inside over your scarred areas twice a day it will really help. I have bad burns on my arms and I tried bio oil and the palmers cream and neither worked very well. I didn't really notice a difference in my scars since I've started using it, until recently, probably cos I see them all the time but I was looking at pictures taken a few months ago and comparing them to my arms now there is definite improvement. My friends and family have noticed it too. Hope it works!
