Hi hon. The bad news is that there isn't anything that will get rid of them except for time. But there are things that will help. The best thing to do is go to a dermatologist. But if you are on a budget:

Bio oil should be fine. If however you are worried about it, use a cotton bud to apply it to the spot instead of all over, or mix with a moisturiser/spot treatment.
The Garlic mask from lush if you can stand it is amazing and I can not recommend it enough (you don't notice the smell as much once it's on).
You can speed up the process by using a Chemical peel
Chemical Peel
You can get home kits but it is better to go to a pro (who 1) know what they are doing and 2) can use different strengths ). If you do use one then make sure you use stronger then normal SPF.
And assuming money is no object then http://www.cremedelamer.co.uk/templa...T_ID=PROD73346 (I have seen how well this works on a burn scar and it was amazing. However not worth bankrupting yourself over)

Bio-oil is fabulous! I wouldn't say it's greasy myself, it's quite light and absorbs into your skin quite nicely. I can't recommend it enough!

I used to work with a woman who had really badly acne scarred skin. She had Dermabrasion (much more intense than Microdermabrasion), cost about £300 and her face was bright red for a week but afterwards her skin was as soft and smooth as a baby's bottom! It was amazing!

Is Bio Oil expensive?

You just buy it from a normal chemist right?

Thanks Ladies

It can be quite expensive, but a little goes a long way so it lasts for a good long while. I think I paid about £8 for a small bottle, but that was a year or so ago and I still have half the bottle left (although I'm naughty and don't apply it every day like I should - but then I put it everywhere too!). You can get it from a normal chemist or from Boots. It's usually cheaper at the chemist but sometimes Boots have good offers on it, so it's worth taking a look around ...
