Honey is a popular natural ingredient that can help reduce acne scars. It is best to utilize raw honey, not the prepared kind found on the racks of most chain markets. To get the best quality, buy honey from the store that sells only natural products. Take 1 teaspoon of honey and apply it all over your skin especially onto the affected area. Apply it in a circular motion, leave it for 10 minutes and after that, wash your face with cold water. To get the best result, apply it at least twice a week, and you can add lemon juice to your honey for better and faster result.
Honey helps your body’s healing process, which may help fade (acne) scars. You can use honey as a spot treatment on scars, applying it every day or every other day as a paste at the site of your scarring. A study found that honey may not be good for scarring caused by burns and deep cuts. Before going to bed, cover your scar with a layer of honey. Wrap the honey-covered scar with a bandage. Leave it on for one full night. Blend 2 tbsp of honey with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Now apply it on acne scars or other scars. Rinse it off with water.
