I had acne in the past and now scars are left. I would like to know if there is any home remedy that would help reduce the scars on my face. I have no money for plastic surgeries and other surgical or expensive medical methods, that is why I am searching for a cheap, but effective plan. And it doesn’t matter if it takes longer.

Hey gril,
there are few effective home made remedies for scars.
HONEY is the best and it has very quick effects. Apply it few times daily on the scar and the results will be visible few days after.
You can do the same with olive oil or with the juice from the leaves of aloe vera. My roommate has aloe vera plant and she sometimes breaks the leave (they are really watery) and rubs the liquid on her hands and face. Direct from nature Smile

if you plan to do this, you need an older pland with bigger leaves. If you break leaves on a young plant, you'll do more damage than good.
Also vitamin play an important role... vitamin A, C and K. Talk to your docotr about the exact amount taken daily.
