Are you suffering from marks left behind by your acne lesions? Every breakout seems to leave you some red or brown marks that just take ages to heal and resolve. Would it be great if you can use some DIY home remedy to speed up the healing process?
Some people are genetically prone to such scarring marks. It is actually a type of hyperpigmentation that results from factors such as your skin type and genetics. The good news is these red or brown marks are not considered severe acne scars. If there is not depression of the skin around it, the discoloration will eventually lighten over time. It could take months, are you able to wait it out?
In the meanwhile, besides trying to conceal the spots with the best concealer you can find, how can you lighten the marks significantly in a short time?
Very simple, just go to your nearest grocery or supermarket and get a bag of small red onions (known as shallots as well)!
How does this work? Shallots are rich in Vitamin C, quercetin and isothiocyanate, which is very effective in counteracting any swelling. These substances are also able to fight off harmful bacteria that are one of the causes of acne.
I have tried these two remedies myself...
1) To lighten acne scars and speed up the recovery of acne scars
First, peel of the onion skin, wash and slick it into very thin slices. Put one slice on each mark you wish to lighten. Do this daily once a day and keep it going for about a week. You should observe some improvement to your acne scars!
2) To treat acne and reduce oily secretions
You may need about 5-10 small red onions. Peel off the onion skin, wash and chop into smaller portions. With a blender, blend these onions together with cold water until it resembles a paste. Use a muslin bag to squeeze out juice from the onion paste. Refrigerate the red onion juice (so that it does not sting too much), and apply gently on the face after it is cold. Wash off.
Onion can also be used for burns and other wounds as well. Are you amazed at how easy and cheap these remedies are? Try it and let me know if it works for you too!
