What kind of herbal essential oils can I use to massage and prevent a scar?!


Question: You shouldn't use essential oils to massage onto skin coz they're very concentrated and could burn your skin. Rather you could get a specially-made for massage oil or for scars. For scars, i recommend Rose Hip oil or Vitamin E oil. For massage alone, Lavender and geranium oils are relaxing and uplifting.

Do not use that! Use coco butter it works wonders.

I can't think ofhand of essential oils but vitamin e does work well. Apply it 3 times a day if you can. When you get up, when you get home & before going to bed.
Also when you massage massage gently across the scar, always in the same direction.

Use Tea Tree oil - it's antibiotic and anti-septic. Good for cuts and pain. But do not use around your eyes or mouth!

I work with essential oils and lavender is so far the best...My son had to have stitches in his forehead recently removed...told it would have a severe scar and everyday i rub a little lavender oil on it now you can barely tell where it is and it's not even a full two weeks old. I also use lavender on all cuts and abrasions...it's also a good calming agent if you have trouble sleeping too

Vitamin E capsules, puncture them and massage into scar. My mother used this back in the 60's and 70's before it was trendy and I started using it. It's worked well. A lot of that other stuff just seems to cost a fortune and has all sorts of moisturizers in them. Don't use essential oils without talking to someone who specializes in alternative medicine or herbal treatment as they need to be used at the appropriate dosage or can be dangerous.

does lotion count well if they do u should really try cocoa butter it comes in a pump bottle it really works good for stecht marks but awesome on scars for example 4 example when i was 5 i ran thru a glass sliding door almost all off the scars have dissapred plus it smells fab l.o.l jk (just kiding)
girl who tried 2 help
essence
p.s
u can find it @walmart or target (sorry for misspelled words

Rose hip seed oil...this not a essential oil but it works. It's rich in many essential fatty acid. Continuous application of this oil has shown positive result on post burn scars, stretch marks(prevents and heals), wrinkles and preventing premature aging. It soothes and heals UV damaged skin and helps recovery from radiation injury.

Vitamin E capsules - break em and rub em on. Or theres a thing called Bio-Oil that works really well!
