Bio oil.

Former Member

i have this kind of nasty scar on my leg from shaving..i've brought some bio oil and i just want to know who else uses it, how good are the results for scares, how long did you have to use it/have been using it for?
the pagaging /website doesnt really give other peoples stories about it you see..

Former Member

Not sure but I know someone who uses Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula that has Vitamin E in it and that has smoothed the scares and blended them in in just a few weeks. Obviously they are still visible but it's working quite well so far.

I have lost of cuts and burns on the tops of my legs and I started using Bio oil about a week ago and I can really notice the effects already. There's a BIG difference if my scars and I have lots of new cuts that heal alot quicker too. Remember to appyly it 2 thimes a day generously. It really works and It had got to the stage for me that I didn't think anything would work but It really makes a difference (I'm not being paid by the company or anything lol!! it is really really good)

I have two permanant marks on my knees from accidents whilst horse riding. They are like red circles- wierd! Do you think this stuff will clear them?

Former Member

I think it probably would or atleast make them less noticable. you should deffinatly give it a try, its ₤10 for a 60ml bottle in superdrug and that lasts about 2-3months if you apply it every day 3 times a day

Former Member

you can get for £9.something from superdrug and £8.something from boots!
but theres a website where you can get for £6.99

i've used palmers coca butter cream and that just didnt work at all.

anything with vitamin e in it will help if you rub it onto your skin.
is the scar recent or old?

:yes: it was for you
vitamin e then. buy some vitamin e capsules that you are supposed to swallow but break them open instead and rub it onto your scar. problem with old scars is they are very difficult to heal / make disappear. you could try concealement stuff like dermablend if you want to hide it though?!

Former Member

Dermablend isn't available in the UK though is it?

Former Member

'Tis indeed available here. Looks pretty good: http://www.dermablend.co.uk/

Thanks otter !
do you think e45 would be any good?
