Right now I'm using Emu oil twice daily to make my scars fade. Would it fade faster if I also used Vitamin C? I'm also using 2-4 grams of Vit C orally and 4grams of MSM a day.
Thanks;D |

I think it depends on what type of scars. |

I think it also depends on where on the body, I have a 24 year old scar from dog's claw (playing fetch) on the back of my hand it will be there forever! Scars on other places without such thin delicate skin disappeared completely really fast!
I also think it depends on each individuals skin, my SIL was told by a plastic surgeon she was never going to be a candidate for any facial cosmetic surgery because of her skin type.
