Lemon juice works for scarring

by Kirsten

I found your site very reassuring and helpful. Although my acne is only mild-moderate, the reddish marks left behind by acne are so frustrating! I am a teenager, and it's just difficult when you're in with so many people with perfect skin. I have been using lemon juice once in a while, and within two weeks the marks are less noticable. Although other people don't see the problem, they make me feel very insecure. Thanks again!

Using lemon juice for scars
by: Yvette

Hi Tee,

You can do both. You can apply real lemon juice topically to your scars by dabbing the juice directly onto any discolored areas. Lemon juice has natural bleaching properties.

You can also drink pure lemon juice mixed with olive oil or water to cleanse your body of toxins. This is more of a long-term solution to preventing acne.

Hope this helps!
