Tips For Treating Removing Chicken Pox Scars: I had chicken pox for the past three weeks; the scars of the wounds are still on my body and would like to know what to do to get them off my skin and then regain the normal skin I had before?



For most part, it should reassure you to know that scars left behind by chicken pox usually disappear by themselves. Only if you have scratched or abraded your skin in any particular spot, will the scar stick around to give you added grief. Those are the kind of spots that usually do not leave your skin, since scratching the surface has deep impacts. However, since you had your bout with chicken pox a mere three weeks ago, it is possible that even the most stubborn of all scars can be taken care of quite easily and effectively. The first thing you must try is to cleanse your body with fresh milk every single day. This will be of the maximum help. Pay close attention to your scars and rub the milk into them deeply and well. In order to effectively get the milk off, do this before bath time. You should also make it a point to apply Aloe Vera gel to your scars before bedtime. This will give the product all night to work on your scars. It will also be easily washed off the next morning. If you cannot do this, and are still using Aloe Vera gel, then keep one thing in mind at all times. You cannot step out in the sun with Aloe Vera gel applied to your skin. This will have a photosynthetic effect on your skin. That is to say, it will end up darkening your skin further. Also, it is best to find a plant and squeeze out the leaves of the gel. This is always the best option. Though using a store brought version of the gel is equally effective as well.

Your other option is to use silicone to get rid of your scars. This is available in sheet form or gel form. You can get this at a store that sells cosmetic products. Alternately, you can also order this product online from many websites. Do keep in mind that it can be quite expensive to use. Applying a mixture of one part hydrogen peroxide, one part lime juice and one part organic vinegar is also useful in getting rid of your scars. But make sure you dab this on topically, rather than scrubbing it all over your skin. Following any and all of these methods will help you with getting rid of your scars within about a couple of months, or maybe even less.
