What can get rid of scars?

My legs are covered in scars and i just can get rid of them. I've tried medical ointments, scar removers, ect. and nothing works. My doctor is hopeless when it comes to the scars on my legs. Could sombody recomend somthing? Please?What can get rid of scars?
OK - please try evening primrose oil capsules. You won't look back. Get them from your health food store - use a good brand such as Blackmores. Take a couple at night (they can make you sleepy). These are jam packed full of vitamin E and will also improve your skin allover, as well as your hair, nails and temperament - seriously, they improve your mood as well. To work from the outside as well you can pierce a capsule and rub the oil into your scars a couple of times a day. Stay out of the sun when you have the oil on your body. You can also use rosehip oil - which is known to be beneficial in removing scars, and also use vegesorb (a vegetable based sorbelene cream) and rub in after your shower every day. You can use vegesorb instead of soap to reduce any further irritation.What can get rid of scars?
I have the same problem as you. I have scars over my legs and arms. I've gone to doctors and done ointments as well. Nothing has worked for me. Unfortunately, it's permanent. Here's a good thing about scars: show them off! Ladies dig a brave man with scars! ;)
I thought there was some laser removal?





I heard Mederma lightens them.
Vitamin E. You can take pills or the oil. Whatever you get .. make sure it has Vit. E in it
Try lemon juice. It's good at bleaching freckles they say. Might work for scars too.

How can I remove the scars?

I've been getting spots on my face since the age of about 9, and they've now been bothering me ever since.


However, when I was younger I didn't understand the effects squeezing would have on my face in the future.


Now I have all these 'pot-holes' on my face.


I was wondering if anyone knew how I could get rid of these scars.


Thanks


xxHow can I remove the scars?
Try Bio-Oil or Mederma


Here are some links...

those are the only over the counter things I can think of but nothing will beat seeing a dermatologist!! Im not sure how those items work on the face but they both work good on scars..i would try mederma first since it is a cream and bio oil may make your skin breakoutHow can I remove the scars?
You should try using something like bi oil or I know that neturgena has a fading of scars medicine i am not sure what it is called but just remember that you will still have scars the products will just lighten them
mederma.. the scars should fade away in time.. i dont really know ur condition so u might want to check with a dermatologist..

Can you get rid of scars after popping pimples on your face?

try bio-oil. It is really good. Massaging you face will also help.

Why do heroin addicts have scars?

My friend is addicted to heroin ( he says he only smokes it, he does not inject heroin ) and he has small scars and wounds all over his body, especially on his face. These wounds look like scars after a mosquito bite. Is there any good site that explains in detail what this drug does to the health of a person?


PS. I'm trying to learn more in order to help him.Why do heroin addicts have scars?
I myself use to be a heroin addict it sounds like he is a skin picker when i would be really high off of heroin i would pick my skin until it formed a scab then leading to a scar thankfully i didn't pick my face i am happy to hear that he has a friend like you because he needs support but don't push he will go to rehab when the time is right. .Why do heroin addicts have scars?
My guess, it's a combination of things, nutrition, allergic reaction, scratching, etc...





Physiologically %26amp; psychologically drugs can create some extreme behaviors, the ';outer scares'; are a result (symptom).





Although not the same drug, Meth users have a tendency to scar themselves by scratching %26amp; picking their skin excessively without even realizing it!
When you do heroin you get fidgety and tend to scratch at your body... And if you are a regular user, you are not healthy, which means your skin/hair/etc is not at a good state which can lead to acne.

Does Mederma work for Hypertrophic Scars?

Well, does it? I've gotten hypertrophic scars on the back of my arms due to having acne. My doctor says that they'll go away over time, but I heard about Mederma and was thinking if that would work.





Also, is there ANY OTHER remedy for hypertrophic scars?Does Mederma work for Hypertrophic Scars?
My daughter has a hypertrophic scar on her neck/throat area from having to have a trachea inserted when she was in a near fatal car crash and in a coma for 3 months. She had the trachea in for about 5 months.





The nurses recommended Mederma, which we did use. I'm not sure if the Mederma helped to flatten the scars a bit, not completely or if it was just the natural healing. The Mederma did fade away the redness. I don't know how long you've had the scars but the key for treating these type of scars is time. You have to start working on them almost immediately. Applying pressure on them will help in flattening them.





All in all I feel that the Mederma did help and it certainly can't hurt to try it. But you have to use it every day %26amp; we used it several times a day.

How do I get rid of acne scars?

You could look into a product called Mederma.How do I get rid of acne scars?
Facials might help. Get your boyfriend to give you a facial every few days and see if that helps. If not at least he had funHow do I get rid of acne scars?
surgery maybe?
There are many things you can do, depending on the types of scars, raised, ice-pick or depressed fibrotic. But they are not over-the-counter. You should be talking with a dermatologist. There are things such as lasers, dermabrasion, chemical peels


and more that can help with acne scars.

    Acne scars will not go away without treatment from a Dr. I would ask for Retinyl. It smoothes the surface of pocks, enlarged pores, bumps, etc- but when you stop using it, some of the old problems come back, some benefits remain, though.





    If Retinyl does not work, check into laser resurfacing. You have got to visit a Dermatologist to get a presciption. Retinyl costs about 30.00 a month. I noticed improvements quickly. When you use Retinyl you have to be extremely diligent with sunscreen. Check it out, It helped me alot..Seeing a Dermatologist is worth the money, it feels great having clear skin..

    Some scars will never really disappear. You can have laser procedure to help this, but if you are still having breakouts, it would seem premature to do this at this stage (I'm 30 and I still have breakouts.)





    I like a product from Neutrogena called the Acne Fade Peel. It is about $12-13 (last time I bought it, a long while ago) but one package will last a long while. You use it, quite sparingly, 2-3 times a week, leave it on your face for 5-10 minutes and then rinse it away. I think it does make a difference after using it for a few weeks, and it also helps to treat breakouts that you already have.





    Also, look into learning how to conceal your acne scars properly, the right type of make-up. There is green tinted concealer and yellow tinted concealer that, when used properly under foundation or other flesh toned concealer really do make a huge difference. Any book by Kevyn Aucoin will teach you how to properly apply concealer (and everything else, for that matter.)
    Use a Scar Treatment. For post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation (brown or red marks on the skin) try something like ';Zenmed's Scar Treatment Kit';, Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Peel. Mederma is also a good ';spot'; treatment. For ';ice picks'; or ';crater-like'; scars, which are actual dents in the skin, often the most effective treatment is seeing a doctor.


    Moisturize and protect. Always use an oil-free moisturizer that has SPF. Try Body Guard Exquisitely Light SPF 30 For Face %26amp; Body.


    Triple Antibiotic ointment If you put this on overnight, it will fade your scars and get rid of them. Don't put too much on in one spot, it can cause your skin to get overly oily











    Tips:





    Avoid touching your face. Your hands can transfer additional oil to an infected area.


    Scars tend to be more noticeable on pale skin. You can combat this with a safe self-tanner (not to be confused with tanning booths and/or sun-tanning, which are unhealthy for your skin). You could also buy a natural redness - countering concealer.


    Neosporin is ideal for speeding up healing time thus causing lesser scarring. There is also Neosporin Scar Solution.


    You can use plain yogurt to help fade scars. Apply it to your face twice daily. It will moisturize your face, purify it and your skin will heal much faster.


    Apply aloe vera or vitamin E; it will speed up the healing process.


    Cocoa butter is a rich moisturizer that is very effective. Try Palmer's Scar Serum. It contains Cocoa butter, Vitamin E, Shark Liver Oil, Silicone, and Allium CEPA and is around $15 available from most chemists.


    Use lemon on scars daily, but use moisturizer before going to bed as the lemon may cause dry skin.


    Honey Mixed with lemon %26amp; almond oil and milk = acne free


    Moisture helps scars heal, so be sure to moisturize (But be careful of heavy moisturizers that can clog pores).


    Do TCA peels of 12% three weeks apart. Amazing, effective, and inexpensive.


    Aloe-vera often helps. If you rub the gooey inside of an aloe-vera plant on the affected area, you will see results in a matter of days. Do it once or twice a day, and simply leave it on. Aloe-vera also helps to eradicate acne scars.


    For mild scars and cuts, using Neoporin works well. Put a little on each morning and night after cleansing your face.

    Getting rid of acne scars does take quite a bit of time to get rid of, but it can most definitely be taken care of in less than a year. I've been using Neutrogena Acne Mark Fading Peel for the past five months and my acne scars are almost completely gone.
    i suggest using coco butter lotion. it will clear the dark spots left behind my pimples . if u use it every night and whenever you shower it wont take more that 2 and a half months.





    BUT REMEMBER TO USE IT CONSISTANTLY
    Buy Wheat germ capsels.





    poke a hole in them, and rub the liquid into your scars.





    do this once or twise a day.





    it's also good for dry skin, and it's rich in vitamins.





    ^.^
    what i do is put a little bit of neosporin (if thats how you spell it?) right before i go to bed, it sounds wierd but it always works for me (:
    I had the same problem.. Use bio oil... Its brilliant.. Use it twice a day until the scars are gone or improved and see what happens.
    Vitamin E, prayer, Proactiv, regular scrubs with water and towel.
    Retina %26amp; mederma with SPF 15 ~ See a dermatologist.
    Proactive or clean and clear proactive might be to expensive
    Yes, what Jen said. Works like a charm.
    you dont !!! proactiv
    i think laser can help but pricey!

    Can you get tattoos over scars?

    I have pretty extensive scarring on the bottoms and tops of my arms and, while I won't get one for a few years, I really, really want a tattoo. The one I want would go over the underside of both my arms, where there are scars. Can I get it there, or not?Can you get tattoos over scars?
    Yup. I got a tatt on my leg for the soul purpose of covering up a very nasty scar. I was warned that it might need touching up due to the ink not staying in scar tissue as well, but luckily it never needed it.





    Actually, if you have a tattoo picked out that you really want, but can't figure out exactly where to get it, going over a scar is a practical answer.Can you get tattoos over scars?
    yepp. you sure can.


    that area may not take the color as well, but you can get it touched up too.





    I have a tattoo on my right foot that covers a bit of a scar, it was a little more tender and the color seemed to fade a bit, but I'm still completely satisfied with it.


    hope this helps =]
    Yep. My friends dad just showed me the tat he got over a scar he had on his arm. Before he told me it was over a scar, I couldn't even tell that it was. He said it hurts a little more but it hides the scar.
    yes you can!


    but it might not take the color in as unscarred skin. also since it's tender, it may hurt more.

    Is this true that Vitamin E has no any effect on scars at all?

    I read an article that says It has no effect at all and it can do damage instead. Dont know for sure if it is really true and So what other alternative can we have besides vitamin e?Is this true that Vitamin E has no any effect on scars at all?
    Not true! - worked for me. I had stitches on my forehead and was very good about putting vitamin E on it. I broke the capsules and squeeze it on my scar from day 1. It's the best. I prefer the capsules to the bottled kind because it's thicker and stays better.Is this true that Vitamin E has no any effect on scars at all?
    It is one of the best things for scars. it makes them softer so they can fade. I really dont think a vitamin that millions of people take everyday would be harmful to your skin.
    it helped my scars
    Vitamin E in pill or capsule form is fat soluble (takes longer for the body to break down) so taking it this way and in large doses can be dangerous and cause you to overdose if you're not careful. I've heard of Vitamin E being used for hormone production, cancer prevention, and as an anti-oxidant (slows aging) so it's not completely worthless. As a cream though, it may be better at preventing scars. In my opinion Vitamin C is a better alternative because it's water soluble (easier for the body to break down) and is essential to form collagen (holds our cells together) and also helps to hold our bones, teeth, and blood vessels together.
    If you are asking because you have a scar and want to minimize it, I would suggest using a product called mederma. I had a surgery to remove a tumor from my abdomen that left me with a scar that was about 11 inches in length, my surgeon recommended it. Looking at it now, you would never guess that I had a major surgery less than 3 years ago.
    It totally works! My best friend riped open her leg on some barbed wire at a farm and it really lessened the scaring! Totally works!
    Vitamin E is most helpful when applied to the scar early. Don't believe everything that you read. Was the article sponsored by a company that wants you to buy something else?
    I haven't heard anything bad about vitamin E, I've used it myself, and it sure didn't do any damage. My sister likes to use coconut oil, it made a difference for her. That's what I'm trying next.
    vitamine C is good
    hi jong jong


    Vitamin E is good for preventing scars.





    surely it works no doubt in thatT
    Vitamin E is good for preventing scars. The only thing that gets rid of scars that are already formed is surgery.
    bedies the vitamin e, research scar massage technique, it can be effective.
    don't tell that to my son,who had a scar, on his cheek when he fell from his bike. Rub the oil on scar

    I have some infection in my inner thighs. Even after cure, the scars still remain. I am a 23 yr male .Plz help?

    I maintain good personal hygiene. But I am troubled by this infection which causes so much irritation. I apply quadriderm ointment and take cetrizine tablets often. This keeps the irritaion at bay for few days but it comes again. The scars left by them are like big rings brown in colour. I am fair skinned so this is also a cosmetic problem . plz help me out of thisI have some infection in my inner thighs. Even after cure, the scars still remain. I am a 23 yr male .Plz help?
    If you're using the same stuff constantly, switch it up. buy a different brand of ointment and make sure the active ingredient is something different. Sounds like jock itch, so cleaning your shower and washing your feet well would help also. Also don't stop using a cream immediately after it stops itching, it can return a few weeks later if you stop using the cream immediatelyI have some infection in my inner thighs. Even after cure, the scars still remain. I am a 23 yr male .Plz help?

    Just how good is Palmers Cocoa Butter and what is it's effect on stretch marks or scars?

    Its great for relaxing the skin and making it supple and soft.





    Stretch marks and scars - you have to be using the cream for a long time fo it to have any affect, if you start to use at the beginning of a pregnancy it does exactly what it claims to do - reduce stretch marks. It does this by softening your skin, making it easier to stretch and therefore not over stretching and causing stretch marks.





    Hope this helps

    Do nose piercings leave noticeable scars?

    i want to get mine done but i'm not allowed only for the reason that my mum thinks they leave really horrible, noticeable scars.


    is it actually true?Do nose piercings leave noticeable scars?
    Honestly everyone is different. And how you take care of it matters. If you neglect to give it proper care you will have infections, and such, and the scar will most likely be more noticeable than if it were healthy. Also, it depends on when you take the jewelry out. If you wait for the healing process to be over, it won't really ';heal'; back together like it would if you took it out a few days after it was pierced. When a piercing heals it creates a small healed tunnel of flesh inside of the hole. If it doesn't get a chance to create that, you have a better chance of the ';tunnel walls'; healing up together. Honestly, some people have noticeable scars, some you don't even know they were even pierced. But I will say that I have had mine pierced twice. One I currently have, and one I took out. There is no trace of the one I took out. But of all the 20 piercings I have, I don't have one scar any more noticeable than a chicken pox scar.Do nose piercings leave noticeable scars?
    There will, most likely, be some scar, but it should be very tiny, since the jewellery worn in nose piercings is generally very small compared to other piercings.





    I couldn't find a good picture to demonstrate, sorry. Maybe ask around and find someone who has taken theirs out, you probably haven't even noticed that someone you know used to have a nose piercing.
    Everybody is different, but I know a few people who let their nose piercing close and it didnt scar that bad at all. You could see a small dot if you got close enough... but you wouldnt be able to see it unless someone was close enough to like kiss you lol! My boyfriend had his lip pierced and let it close. Same thing there... there's a small dot but its not very noticable unless you know there used to be a piercing there.
    If you scar easily, then yes, you will have a noticeable scar. However, if you don't scar or if you rarely get scars, it will be minimal.
    The scarring depends on the skill of the person who does your piercings and the care you take of it while it heals. Make sure to keep the piercing clean during the first few days. And be gentle around that area.
    I had one when I was about 16 (I'm now 25) I wouldn't say its ';really horrible'; but it did leave a small scar. It kind of just looks like an enlarged pore, no one has ever commented on it, but I hate it.
    I don't know about nose piercings but eyebrow ones do :(
    Mine didnt scar at all. You can't even tell I ever had one.
    yeah they do leave scars and they leave big holes
    Mine didn't scar at all! But my friends did. Every body is different.

    Does sun exposure make acne scars worst?

    i have them on my face, chest and back.


    i was thinking that the sun would help because i am a dark skinned person and that the scars wouldn't show as much with a tanned body.Does sun exposure make acne scars worst?
    I would recommend consulting a dermatologist about cosmetic options, but I don't think the sun does your skin any good (other than the few minutes a day you need for vitamin D). Sun exposure damages your skin. It causes premature aging, and possibly skin cancer.Does sun exposure make acne scars worst?

    pure vitamin e oil and alsa a quality, pure cocoa butter. i rotated using both after surgery for months and months and my scar has completely faded (which was unusual- most people that have that surgery always have a very noticible scar) the cocoa butter stick form body shop is terrific and a lot of people use it. for vitamin e, someone recommended vitamin e gel tabs. then you just cut one open and squeez it out onto your scar. rub it around and let it dry. it worked great for me!!!Are there any creams or oils that can remove old scars and stretch marks?
    I use Bio-Oil twice a day. I've been using it for the past month and a half. My stretchmarks are fading, but the minimum you should use it for results is 3 months. You really need patience for any kind of scar/stretchmark fader.

    Does aloe vera lotion help get rid of acne scars? How often should I use it if it does help?

    Yes it does. Ithelps regenerate skin. It's anti-inflammitory, and it boosts your immune system. Every morning and night, you take a little and rub it on. This might take up to 6 months, but your skin complexion and color will be better. You could also buy Vitamin E supplements. I had to do this to get rid of my scar on my head. You take the vitamin e caplet, pop it open with a pin, and rub it on. It definitly worked.Does aloe vera lotion help get rid of acne scars? How often should I use it if it does help?

    Breast Reduction/Augmentation Scars. How come celebrities don't have any?

    I am considering getting a Breast Reduction. But I am afraid of the scars. However I was wondering, how come celebrities how have done both kinds of surgeries, don't have any scars?


    Is it possible for someone to erase the scars with laser or similalr operations?Breast Reduction/Augmentation Scars. How come celebrities don't have any?
    There are numerous options to reduce scars after surgery.





    One is that the celebrity may have really good skin that heals well, and leave very little scarring. Another option is that the person may be using makeup to cover the scars, or have scar removal/reduction (laser) surgery to rid themselves of the scar. Creams for scarring also work, as long as you put them on when you're supposed to.





    Some people have breast augmentation done though the belly button. Which reduces the scar, since no one looks inside their belly button. they also have breast reductions done through the belly button, and with the cutting you use high tech techniques in order make the scarring very small.





    I hope I helped. /smileBreast Reduction/Augmentation Scars. How come celebrities don't have any?
    They do have scars--you just can't see them because good doctors will hide them. Implants can be put in from the belly button or from the armpits. Unfortunately, reductions are more extensive surgery. They reposition the nipple, usually, which involves scarring. Few celebrities have had reductions, so you're not going to see those scars, anyway. On this website, you can see some scars: http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/


    In particular, look at Tara Reid's breast implant scar: http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/archi…


    But scars are less important than other potential complications of breast reduction: loss of feeling in the breasts, and inability to nurse.
    You shouldn't worry about scars, you should worry about your back health!





    My scars are hardly noticeable. A good PS, a good patient, and using Mederma or Scarguard are excellent.





    Some do have scars, they are just hardly noticeable because they followed directions and used one of the above products (or similar).
    If you saw the before and after photographs of an average celebrity, you wouldn't recognize them. And I mean before Photoshop/airbrushing.





    They're human. They have scars.
    Because they're celebrities, they have to be 'perfect'.

    Their pictures are also airbrushed.

    As your parents won't allow it you sound quite young. I realise it's easy for someone as ancient as me to say don't worry, but they really will fade with time and once puberty has finally finished. YUCK ALERT WARNING: I used to suffer from blackheads, spots, boils and sties between 15-18 and after that they all cleared up and now nothing. I've certainly got no apparent scars. I sometimes miss the fun of squeezing blackheads and exploding boils!





    Your complexion will change also, don't worry too much about it. Just keep your face clean. If you look in most face creams and such like, you'll see the same ingredients, the main one of which is usually a mystery substance called aqua. They call this mystery substance aqua because if they wrote what it really was, you might not be so happy to pay so much for something that has a main ingredient of water. The second ingredient will then usually be an oil. The other ingredients are then often there just to make the product look scientific. Factor in a few scientific sounding words on the side of the box and voila, the miracle cure of all time, until the next ';improved'; one usually without any real scientific basis.





    Ask your mum about her puberty (ooooh, scary thought!!), she was probably the same as you.
    Neutragena makess a microdermabrasion kit which is just an exfoliator and some product, not a severe microdermabrasion like you get in an office and works nearly as well. You can buy it at a drug, department or beauty store.
    You could try using cover up underneath your makeup it sometimes plumps up the skin and hides it.

  • Why some people can mess their pimples around with fingers and leave no scars but others could get scars?

    Scarring is caused from having a specific type of acne called cystic acne. So called because it has the acne on top but also has a type of cyst under the skin.





    When the acne clears up (which can take 1 to 2 weeks for this sort of acne) the cyst creates a pit in the skin.





    This type of scarring has nothing to do with picking at your skin, although that will make the problem worse it is not the cause.


    The cause is the actual cyst.





    If you suffer from this type of acne please see a dermatologist as soon as possible before irreversible scarring is doneWhy some people can mess their pimples around with fingers and leave no scars but others could get scars?
    it depends on the skin and how deep the 'thing' is, but some who have ultra sensitive skin can avoid scars if the marks are dealt it while its early, like in some low-cost facial treatments wherein after the pricking treatment they put in creams or even a small laser to dry out the 'wounds' or something.





    Some people have all the luckWhy some people can mess their pimples around with fingers and leave no scars but others could get scars?
    Depends what type of spot I suppose. Whithead, boil or blackhead. Or how deep it is.
    Hmmmmmm..... Errrrrrr......... Sorry, dun mean to be a b!tch but I've got no idea. Never had zits except for the occasional 1 or 2 when I'm having menses. But those clears up in less than a weeks' time..

    What is the best make-up to cover black scars on dark skin..?

    Please could someone tell me the best make-up to cover up black scars on dark skin.. when i used to have spots i used to foolishly pick my spots, and it left black scars all around my face..i recently brought mac's studio fix foundation - but it doesn't effectively cover up the scars as my scars are darker then my skin tone..


    please please could someone advise me on the best product to use to effectively cover up my scars- as i have a very important job interviewing coming up and want to cover them up completely!!





    Thanks..





    PS..i have oily skin!!What is the best make-up to cover black scars on dark skin..?
    You'll probably need theatrical makeup or a product like Coverblend or Dermablend. Their commonly used to cover scars, varicose veins, etc.





    You should be able to find one or more of these at your lcal drugstore, Sephora, or specialty cosmetics store.What is the best make-up to cover black scars on dark skin..?
    Do you use a daily regimen for cleansing and moisturizing your oily skin? How's your diet and do you drink lots of water? I do know of a great product line that is designed for your specific needs. Email me at nesa23us@yahoo.com
    Broken reccord... But DermaBlend! It's awesome stuff... Very thick and it'll cover anything! I used it to cover my tattoos while I'm at work. They have many different shades (21), pick the one that's right. Apply the makeup by dabbing it on with your middle finger (it takes a little practice to get it right, so play around with it a little) blend with dabs also, don't rub it, you'll get lines. After you get it right, use the setting powder to ';set'; the make-up, it stays put all day! The cover creme is available online at the website below and at Ulta stores. They also have other products, if you go into the Ulta stores they'll be happy to help you find one that's right!
    Dermablend is a good product for covering up dark spots. You can find their products in stores such as Jcpenney and Macy's. I know a friend who uses M.A.C. to cover her skin imperfections as well. Just make sure you have assistance in selecting the right colors.
    Dermablend is made specifically for this purpose, sold at MD offices, some day spas, high end department stores.
    You should see a dermatologist that specializes in treating people with dark skin.
    Well I don't know how to cover your black scars but I will tell you how you may be able to get rid of them. I pop those Vitamin E (400) gel capsules with a needle and then at night before I go to bed I squeeze the oil out on to any scar I may have. Rub it in a little. You will have to do this for up to a month but you will definitely see a difference. These cost very little 2-6 dollars depending on on the quantity they have but well worth it. Good Luck!!!

    When will the scars from my acne go away? are they ever going away?

    It depends on if the scar is a depression in your skin or just a darker discoloration. A discoloration will eventually fade whereas a depression in the skin will never go away completely. You can have laser work done on your skin to help even it out or have injectables, such as Restylane, to fill the area.When will the scars from my acne go away? are they ever going away?
    Acne scars do not go away, unless you see a dermatologist. And only then it is a maybe.When will the scars from my acne go away? are they ever going away?
    Surgery is the only way
    Scars from ur acne will most likely never go away. Once you have popped them and left a mark, ur donmed. I KNOW!!!
    Try using Bio- oil! :-)
    If you are trying to prevent scar tissue from becoming permanent, you can apply friction over the area by using a clean fingertip and making small back and forth motions over the area. It will minimize the scar tissue that forms. If it is way too late for that, you can buy a package of microdermabrasion facial treatments from most day spas. It's basically a vacuum of tiny crystals that clear off the impurities on the skin, and greatly reduce acne scars.

    if the scars are that bad, probably plastic surgery could be the best solution
    there is a kind of plaster tat claimed to lighten the scars n heal/flatten the even pop-up skin. have to stick it on for quite a long time each day.


    sorry i forgot its name. and its not cheap too.


    try HANSAPLAST....i think its the brands name. go to a pharmacist for details.


    good luck.
    laser treatment can get rid of them
    you cant because ive got 2 scars on my knee and ive been looking how to get rid of them but on the other hand if you are young you might grow out of it!
    consult to doctor or specialist in skin to solve your problem...
    a fast solution would be surgey or laser but if u are willing to do the time and the scar isnt really on the big side iceing it everyday will help eventually but it could take months to start to see changes

    you can get a chemical peel. I've heard its not painful at all and leaves great results!
    You can try microdermabrasion. This can be done at either a doctor's office or a spa. I'm not positive on all of the specifics. Never had it done, but I hear it works. check it out on wikipedia.
    Other than going for laser treatments there are a few things you can try - getting a tan works fairly well I've found although some people swear by drugstores vitamin E creams or scar creams.
    This stuff works wonders, it kinda smells bad but thats it.

    Microdermbrasion for acne scars/hyperpigmentation?

    I had 10 sessions of dermabrasion (not micro) and chemical peel treatments to get rid of deep stretch marks. The skin look red and raw and worse for six months and I got depressed, but it eventually healed looking better than before with no discoloration. Doing the chemical peals at the same time as the dermabrasion was absolutely the wrong thing to do. I also worked at a steel foundry and had to stand in front of a 3000 degree furnace and it totally inflamed my skin. If your just get getting microdermabrasion, expect some some discoloration that will heal within 6 months at the most. Its smart to to it now instead of the summer. Never do it in the summer.

    * Won't make the scar worse





    Cons





    * Expensive compared to petroleum jelly


    * Extensive marketing campaign not backed by science


    * Time intensive - manufacturer recommends applying three times a day for 8 weeks on new scars
    Mederma - I think, it's good for stretch mark and scar from surgery(stitch) - New Scar take shorter time. Try to use cream as soon as you have scare.





    Try to use lotion everyday - It's take time but cheap.

    When someone is hurt emotionally, why they say that their scars hurt but not wounds?

    my friend that was raped said ';it scars you for life';. and many other people say that they have scars. why dont they say that they are wounded? cause scars dont hurt. I have few scars and they dont hurt, but when I was wounded, then it did hurt.





    ';these scars needs to heal'; - this sounds weird. a scar is already healed. its the wound that needs to be healed, not a scar. why people say that?When someone is hurt emotionally, why they say that their scars hurt but not wounds?
    Scars never heal! They may not bleed, but trust me, they are always right below the surface visible or not. I knew a girl that was raped at 14 years old, 10 years later she's walking through a department store and happen to smell the same cologne that the pervert had on who raped her. She got in her car, sped home, and promptly shaved her head. When asked why she did it, she said she didn't want to look or feel pretty. Scars NEVER heal!When someone is hurt emotionally, why they say that their scars hurt but not wounds?
    scars are the result of a wound, when it is emotional, it means it will always be with you, it may lighten in time and sometimes it may even appear to disappear, but it never totally goes away. Scar is the proper choice of describing an emotional pain/event. We heal the wound, but the scar becomes a permanent part of our lives.
    Wounds heal. Scars are forever.
    scars dont heal
    Because a wound can heal, a scar is a constant reminder of that wound.
    This is how I see it. I can get cut with a blade on my face, it might hurt for a little while, but I'll get over it, the scar will heal and the pain will subside-however, I am scarred for life.


    If I am ambushed and my leg is blown off, I will heal, but I will be handicapped by what happened for the rest of my life. I'm wounded. I cannot hide what happened,,and it affects the way I live the rest of my life here on this earth.


    I encourage the word scar. If you tell me that you are scarred, I feel like you are letting me know that yeah, You see it on my face right now, and I'm hurt, but over time it wont hurt so bad, and the scar will slowly fade away becoming nothing more than a distant memory.


    If you say you're wounded I feel like you are letting me know that you're hurt permanently...and there is no getting past the pain of the memory.
    When they say ';Scars'; - scars are a visible sign of a wound so it can never be forgotten, even though the 'pain' is gone the memory of what made the wound is still there.


    My husband wrecked our car, he got scars on his back from it, I never remember the wreck until I see the scars and then the memories come back.


    The rape is a mental scar on the brain. Always there to see.

    Please help me with some method or treatment.How can I get rid of my Acne Scars? Please Help. 10 Points?
    Well,when it comes to acne scars,u should include a scar serum in ur skincare regime since this could improve ur scar appearance by promoting healing and cell renewal.Plus,u could also use Vitamin E or Cocoa Butter since these really works wonders on acne scars.However,if u would like to opt for remedies,I would suggest different 4 steps that u could try at home to improve ur scars.





    Baking Soda-Exfoliate your skin with baking soda. Often times, a version of baking soda is used in cosmetic microdermabrasion treatments. You can give yourself a mini microdermabrasion treatment by mixing one teaspoon of baking soda with the two teaspoons of filtered water.Then gently rub the mixture on your acne scar for sixty seconds then rinse it off.





    Fresh Fruits-In addition to eating fresh fruits to supply your skin with collagen building vitamin C, you can also smear them onto your face for gentle acid exfoliation. Just puree a forth a cup of pineapple and smooth it onto your face. Leave it for 10-15 minutes, then rinse. Since the pineapple contains ascorbic acid, it will impart a brightening effect on the face, and help fade acne marks.





    Apple And Honey-Using a blender, make a mixture out of 1 peeled apple with 1 tablespoon of yogurt, half a cucumber and 1 tablespoon of honey. Apply on face, leave for 20 minutes and wash off with warm water.





    Olive Oil-Massage a pea-sized amount of olive oil onto your face.Acne scaring can cause the skin to lose its elasticity and suppleness.The moisturizing nutrients in the olive oil will penetrate the skin to deeply moisturize the skin and soften the skin鈥檚 texture.





    Well,these are those 4 remedies that works best for ur skin that impose no irritation to ur skin.Good luck trying these at home and pick one that suits u.Hope this helps and great skin wishes.

    You cannot get rid of any type of scars. They are permanent. Eventually, if they are not severe, they may fade, almost completely, but that simply takes time.


    Some people seem to trust cocoa butter/lotion/etc. or vitamin E oil/lotion/etc. to help fade scars and stretchmarks, so you can try that. It only works for regular scars, though. If you happen to have ';icepick'; scars (the deep, usually round-ish, 'hole-y' scars), there really isn't anything at all you can do.





    The best advice I can give you is to experiment with some natural remedies (such as the cocoa butter) to help make them less obvious. Getting a tan of some sort may help make them less noticeable, but be careful, because it could just as easily make them stand out! If all else fails, some quality makeup may help you (try a concealer stick and some light coloured foundation--always go for lighter makeup compared to your skin colour if you are in doubt, as it helps to cover better).





    EDIT:


    I forgot to mention chemical peels and such... Look it up and see if it may work for you.
    The skin discoloration you are mentioning (hyperpigmentation) will fade within 6 months or so. However, with the scarring only time will tell. Some will dimish completely, while others will remain. It may not be the best of ideas to get a chemical peel or laser treatment as that could only spur the development of your acne once again. My advice is to be patient.
    You can use vitamin e oil. I have the same problem as you and that's what I use to treat my scars. You can drink them or pop the tip open with a sanitized needle and apply them on your face before going to bed. Don't apply too much or it will be too greasy. Oh by the way, it has a really funky smell. You just have to bear with it. I've been doing this for about 3 weeks now and my scars are fading a bit. It takes time though. If you want faster results, apply this 3 times a day. Hope this helps. :)
    You can't fully get rid of scars. They can get slightly better though if you use Cetaphil (or anything) daily.

    I have a burn mark, acne scars all over my body and just regular scars-Will mederma help? Personal experiences

    So yeah, pretty much what I said in my title. I've had all of these scars for half a year to about seven years. And I'm just sick of them! Has anyone used mederma and had it work for them? How often did you have to use it?





    Thanks!I have a burn mark, acne scars all over my body and just regular scars-Will mederma help? Personal experiences

    You can't so next time your face is covered with hideous acne, don't mess with it and then you won't have to ask everyone who has a Yahoo account in the world...Good luck with that!How do I get rid of my acne scars?
    well my advice to you is Don鈥檛 start any treatment for scarring until your acne is completely gone and unlikely to come back.


    Skin resurfacing techniques (like dermabrasion), surgical excision, and fillers have been used to diminish acne scarring for years with mixed results. Currently, laser therapy has assumed a more important role in the treatment of acne scars, and other newer surgical methods featuring light and radio waves are an option to treat your acne.

    You can't. I'm sorry. you can try to wear makeup to cover it up..but u cant get rid of it. Sorry.
    Try a cream called 'scar zone' it helps to greatly deminish dark marks on your face caused from acne . I've used it in the past to clear up a scar on my face, but you apply it in the morning and at night when you go to bed,it's worked for me~


    you can get it at most stores in the us for around 7 -10 dollars:)


    Keep in mind it won't completely erase the scars , just fade them.

    What ointment/cream/serum is best for scoliosis scars ?

    the scar runs from my neck down to the bottom of my hip


    i have been using palmer's cocoa butter scar serum but it seems like its not working


    i heard about maderma and pawpaw ointment but i'm not sure if they are good.


    please suggest one that you or someone you know have used and worked for reducing the appearance and size





    thanks.What ointment/cream/serum is best for scoliosis scars ?
    I heard vitamin E, scar creams, and Bio oil all help.





    I had a bicycle wreck (Into a wooden fence) and I got really nasty scars on my legs and knees. I used scar zone and it seemed to work, but you have to rub it on your scar for a long time so it would probably take a long time since your scar is so big.


    Keep your scar covered with sunscreen on sunny days and when you go swimming. It's very sensitive and I have heard of people getting pre cancerous skin cells on their scar, just because they forgot to wear sunscreen.


    Look at some different vitamin oils and scar ointments, if you really are concerned about your scar talk to your doctor or a dermatologist.


    Good LuckWhat ointment/cream/serum is best for scoliosis scars ?
    i'm not sure how well the lotion is working, but i am currently using suave cocoa butter w/ shea. :]

    What product can I use to prevent cuts and scratches on my face from becoming scars?

    Bio Oil,


    also the thing that causes scars are the scabs, so if you soak them in warm water and scrub with something, not to much though, then put some moisturizer on. This should help, but be gentle. XWhat product can I use to prevent cuts and scratches on my face from becoming scars?
    Neosporin. (Not sure if that is spelled right)

    yes, at 52 i have been using them for a couple of years and am completely satisfied with themHas anyone tried the new mineral make-ups? Do they really cover up blemishes and scars?
    it is really great stuff. i use bare minerals. and you can buy differnt combos to get exactly what you want.Has anyone tried the new mineral make-ups? Do they really cover up blemishes and scars?
    Yes! I wear it all the time, but you only wear a little bit and it will cover everything you don't want showing. It is a great product.
    Yes they do. They cover up my brown and red spots from blemishes. And they help conceal my under-eye circles.
    I've used it for about 3 yrs (bare minerals) and it works well, my only issue with it is that after a few hours (`4) it wares off just like any other I suppose, but it might be b/c I work in a biological laboratory and am always putting on a mask....but on the weekend,when I ware makeup, it may seem to last longer, and my skin is sooo much healthier.....
    Really helps - I have acne scars and it helps to minimize them much more than anything else I have used in the past (and I've tried everything). :)

    Im a cutter how do i get rid of the scars or make them heal faster?

    hi rise,


    there is an oil u can buy now called bio oil that can help, u get it from chemists, i dont know how much it is. if thats expensive u can try vitamin E capsules just stick a pin in them and squeeze the liquid onto the scars and rub it in three to four times a times a day, which is probably a cheaper alternative. i hope it helps u out rise, and if anyone else gives you a therapy lesson rise, tell them to go punch it! we all make mistakes luv none of us r perfect! r we?


    hope it works for u rise?





    chel aIm a cutter how do i get rid of the scars or make them heal faster?
    First of all I agree… people who have never been there don’t understand. Cutting isn’t necessarily just an “immature ploy for attention” as a lot of people think. I’ve never been a cutter myself, but a member of my family, and the person I’m closest to in the world, used to be, and still slips into the habits when her issues kick up again. In her case, it was part of Bipolar Disorder, Manic-Depression, and Borderline Personality Disorder.





    People – telling a person to “stop cutting” is all well and good, but things are not that simple. If the original poster *wants* to stop, that's the only time that they will.





    So I’m not going to preach. I’m not going to applaud you for it, but I’m not going tell you off either. A couple people have already said my suggestion – Vitamin E Oil. It’s super-hydrating, all-natural, and helps your body with cellular regeneration, which should fade scars over time.





    I’d be careful – cutter mentioned above that I'm close to made a few very deep cuts this past winter, and they aren’t healing properly. She’s wound up with problems with the new scars. Basically what’s happened, is the reforming scar tissue underneath is having a kind of allergic reaction to itself and she’s having to have steroid shots right into the scars to try and quell the reaction and itching and burning pain.Im a cutter how do i get rid of the scars or make them heal faster?
    I used to be a cutter and I got help. I can tell you it feels much better not to cut. I am 25 now and still have scars. If I hadn't stopped when I did I would be one big scar.





    People who say ';just stop it'; don't understand.





    I got inpatient treatment at a youth facility. I was there 2 weeks the first time and 2 weeks the second time. I did cut a few times after my second release, but I somehow grew out of it when my life improved.





    Outpatient counseling rarely works. I wish you the best of luck and I want you to know that there are better ways of venting your pain and frustration.





    Use scarzone scar cream on the healed ones and make sure you thoroughly cleanse the wounds. Put some antibiotic ointment on the clean wounds and cover them up.





    E-mail me if you need someone to talk to :)
    don't worry i cut myself too, well not anymore for about atleast 3 months. I'm also embarrased of them because it's so visible and people are like ';What happened to your arm?';. God, I hate that question. But I visit my therapist and psyhcologist. I also HATE it when people ask me if I am emo.


    It pisses me off. don't you hate that???
    I have tons of scars myself from cutting, there's really nothing you can do about it mine are very deep and I tried using cocoa butter, mederma and stuff like that...if there not that deep trying using cocoa butter or some scar solution.
    You did it to yourself. Face the consequences. Maybe you should have thought about that before you sliced yourself. Atleast you can show others your past pain and suffering now so you can be uber scene.
    you stop cutting.. i always wondered the same thing when i cut... and i was embarrassed of my scars... when i got over cutting i got a tattoo over my scars so i couldnt cut anymore and so i couldnt see them either
    Mederma is a product that is supposed to help vanish scars, but I think you have to apply it three times a day, for six months to a year. It hardly seems worth it.





    In case you're interested:

    i think if u spread vitamin E on it, (have to get the liquid vitamin E). also there is some stuff that is acually designed by doctors to get rid of scars. (you just have to look it up) good luck
    Vitamin E oil. Get a capsul and cut it open and rub it on your scar. Oh, and stop cutting yourself! Talk to a counselor or friend or someone you can trust.
    To be quite honest mate,





    the best advice I can give you is to quit cutting.





    That's the only thing that is going to help you at ALL.
    Estrogen and DHEA!
    Try to stop cutting but maybe long sleeved shirts and jumpers could cover them also try foundation and smaller cuts?
    They have cream at local stores but it depends how deep it is.
    they fade eventualy stop cutting ureself
    Don't cut your self...Put lotion on these scabs and/or just don't pick them off..
    stop cutting urself

    I need something that will give me great coverage. Not bar minerals please.


    So any reccomendations?


    Also, since i hardly ever wear any makeup, i know nothing about putting it on. How should i do that? thanks!





    Looking for a foundation/concealer/whatever that provides great coverage against acne+a few acne scars?
    Dont waste your money on foundation. They are all the same!





    Avoid the very cheap ones because they have alot of chemicals (than usual) but get a average one.





    The BEST foundation is the one that is one or two shades darker than your natural colour.





    before u apply foundation, cream your face with a little moisturiser because it helps even out the foundation that u will apply on top.Looking for a foundation/concealer/whatever that provides great coverage against acne+a few acne scars?
    I know you didn't say any bare minerals, but they make a product for blemishes in powder form that's friggin genius.





    if you want a good concealer, you'd probably want to stick with anything that neutrogena makes, they have a clear skin line that contains salicylic acid, which sucks the oil right out of your skin while concealing blemishes at the same time.





    always put your concealer on first and then I would follow with a loose powder foundation. pressed powder has wax and oil in it as a binding agent (to keep it's shape in the compact) all of which are really bad for your skin.





    apply concealer by dabbing it on with your ring finger. blend the edges out gently with your finger or a natural hair brush, and follow by doing a full sweep with a bigger brush.
    i know ur against it but,


    bare minerals





    its well worth the price and u dnt look like ur wearing anything.....as long as u dont get like 4 shades lighter/darker


    it actually lightens the acne scars


    idk how,


    i had a scar i got on the side of my jaw and had stitches and it never went away, even after 7 years, it just faded some


    well i was using bare minerals, and wahla


    in a month, it was just this faded white line, and since im really white, u can almost not c it


    also, u dont feel it cuz its not thick/goopy/sticky





    it is a powder, but it covers better then a liquid foundation





    and for best results, if u have a red or swollen zit, use an eyeshadow brush, (or something like it, bare minerals sells some specifically 4 this 2) and dab it on the spot and its gone...till u wash the makeup off

    Acne scars not healing after a year?

    Hi, I've had acne scars ever since I came back from the Philippines which was like last January %26lt;/3.


    You don't know how painful it is covering your face with pressed powder, foundation, and concealer.


    I've had pimples forming here on up.


    It's really depressing. The acne scars make me self conscious.


    Any helpful home remedies to cure this nitemare?


    I heard Bio Oil, and vitamin e is good. But, what type?


    Thank you so much if you answer truthfully!Acne scars not healing after a year?
    Honestly I think I tried every homemade remedy possible and nothing worked. I went to the dermatologist around two year ago and she prescribed Retin-A for me. It truly worked wonders. If you're willing to do that though, it's going to get worse before it gets better.

    Will my acne scars go away on my face if i use cocobutter?

    i have acne scars from popping them and sumtimse jus *** from pimples


    and i need a way to get rid of them


    wiill using cocobutter get rid of them ?Will my acne scars go away on my face if i use cocobutter?
    No - it will likely clog your pores and lead to more pimples. To minimize/reduce/eliminate scarring, DO NOT pop them. Ever. Just wash your face regularly, use an astringent/toner like Stridex or whatever, and apply benzoyl peroxide to the actual zits (Oxy 10 is good...). For places where you already have scars, you can try breaking open a Vitamin E capsule and rubbing the oil JUST on the scar, or a brand-name scar minimizing product like Mederma (smells better than the Vitamin E but works about the same...). And also, stay out of the sun. The UV rays can sort of ';set'; the scars in, making them darker than they would be otherwise.





    Hope this helps.Will my acne scars go away on my face if i use cocobutter?
    Personally, ive read alot on scars as i have quite a few left over too. What ive heard to do is apply acv(apple cider vinegar, u can buy it at ur grocery store for under 2 bucks) and mix it half and half with warm water. Then dab the diluted acv with a cotton ball and apply it on your scar. Also i have heard that drinking it is great too but it might taste a bit sour :P . Also another great thing to do is go make an appointment with your dermatologist and get her/him to prescribe u a tropical gel called ';retin a micro';. As ive heard and read, u need to apply just a lil' dab on the scar for about twice a day, preferably morning and night. However the downfall to using retin-a micro is that it will peel your skin - but thats how it works. Using retin-a micro will make ur scars get better before it gets worst. tho retin a micro wont work over night, i am more then certain u will achieve decent results from using it atleast about 2-3 weeks. It takes a bit of time, but im positive that if you use this tropical and dab some acv dilutd with water, those maarks will fade in time. gd luck :)
    My mother think so. She says it will work ons treach marks too

    It really depends on how bad they are, how deep the scar tissue is, how thick. Generally you can buy over the counter medications that can help reduce the look of scars. Or you could look into surgery if there are means to do so.

    Kelo-cote Scar Gel (runs about 37 dollars)

  • Does retin a help get rid of pitted scars on the cheeks and diminish wrinkles. If not what does?

    It does help get rid of scars and help the cells so they can work best, which CAN help wrinkles. But a pitted scar means a total collapse of collagen. That may not be repairable. More serious methods may be necessary. If you're getting retin-A, you should see a dermatologist anyway, so ask the doc. They can help a lot. My skin and yours might be completely different, but the doctor will know what to do about yours.Does retin a help get rid of pitted scars on the cheeks and diminish wrinkles. If not what does?

    Wrinkles causes not only because of age and also due to dry skin. Home remedies are inexpensive and do not have any side effects. More information available at: http://w35.org/

    Cocoa butter will not decrease the look of scars. Only stretch marks.





    There is an ointment called Mederma, an OTC, that is supposed to work well.





    You can download a coupon for $2 off the product here:

    There is also a massage technique called 'ironing' that works on any scar, as long as its not on your face around your delicate eyes.





    How does it work? Simply use your fingertips and rub over the scar a few times a day with back and forward pressure. Do it one direction that goes along the scar, then do it against the scar, in the other direction. (kinda forming an X)





    You'll want to use pressure like you're 'ironing' which is pretty firm pressure.





    This massage technique increases circulation and improves production of the new cells around the scar area. (they have died there) That improves the scar.





    You'll need to do this regularly, a few times a day, to see results. I had a scar on my leg that I used the technique on and its completely gone now.





    You can find out more about the technique here:

    Mederma ointment or Vitamin E
    Bio-oil is brill. I get keloid scars so I used it after my surgery last year it they healed 100 times better than any other scars I have. It is supposed to work on old scars as well, but I have not tried it on older ones, I just used it on the incision after the surgery. it costs about 拢10.00 at the chemist.
    vit. E cream will do the trick
    i so feel you .if you find anything that really works pls let me know cause im tired of suffering
    Maybe rose hip oil would be good for your scars.
    Vitamin E in tablet and or liquid form worked for me after surgery.

    What is the best medicine for scars to go away?

    What is like the best medicine for scars or pimples to go away so that skin can be nice??? without having skin pealing and all that stuff....What is the best medicine for scars to go away?
    Scars will never go away, but you can get stuff to make them fade. Coccoa butter will help them fade and Maderma (sp?) will also help them fade. As for pimples, the best thing that I have found is to just wash your face like a million times a day (seriously like three times a day--when you wake, after work/school, and before bed). I use dial, or any soap that doesn't have any fragrance or any weird stuff in it. Use a high quality moisturizer after you wash with the bar soap. Clinic makes a wonderful moisturizer and a great facial soap. Good Luck!!What is the best medicine for scars to go away?
    Mederma works quite well and so does vitamin e oil or lotion! You can use both at the same time!
    vitamin E oil
    mederma trust me I know but takes at most 8 months. Depends on the person.
    Maderma you can get it at your local drug store
    For scars, get the vitamin E gel capsules, stick them %26amp; put it on the area.

    Did the new kid on the block make the old, experienced guy with scars look like a rookie?

    McCain had the worst campaign I've ever seen. Obama had the best I've ever seen, which is a very good thing, because I believe Obama needed a knock out campaign to win.





    It bodes well for his presidency.Did the new kid on the block make the old, experienced guy with scars look like a rookie?
    No-it looked like the worse case of affirmative action around. Giving a job over to an inexperienced person because of his race and not because of experience. Makes the new kid look like his diaper is full and needs changing. Thank God we only have 4 years!Did the new kid on the block make the old, experienced guy with scars look like a rookie?
    I'd say that the powers that exist within the democratic party (ex-media types, probably) did indeed make the powers that exist within the republican party (oil barons, cattle franchises, etc) look like rookies.






    No, the mainstream media decided that BHO (PBUH) must be president of a country he loathes, and behaved accordingly.
    Just give it a little time and the inexpierenced kid will make all the voters look like fools//man it's gonna happen/////
    Time to move forward.


    The old guy made a great concession speech.


    I believe his Bush campaign advisors did him wrong.
    What was president bush was he a fad or new kid? If he had all the experience, what the hell happened?
    Kinda...





    Most people just saw the new kid and decided to follow the fad.
    I don't like the new kids on the block. ..and Herman Munster is cool.
    It is good that Obama is GOOD dodging bullets.
