Has anyone ever used pure vitamin e oil on their scars or stretch marks? If so, how often did you use it, how long did you use it, and how were your results?

After I had surgery on my neck many years ago, the doc even told me to put vit. E on the scar. I think it helps to do it right after the injury but I have always heard it is the best for healing scars.

According to this it can do more harm. Apparently more research should be done. Your Skin and Vitamin E: Does Vitamin E Heal Scars?

It could be that the oil is just a good emollient and helped the scar from drying out while it healed itself. I've always had good success with using vit E from capsules on minor first degree burns but wouldn't use it for anything deeper.

I agree Fawnie it has helped me heal minor cuts and scrapes and it just feels so soothing.

V,
For stretch marks, some ppl are using the long-needled medical grade Dermaroller. Here is a discussion of it, but it sounds like more than I would want to get into:

Yes, the dermaroller website says that the device helps cellulite creams penetrate better. I don't know this for a fact though.

While looking for something else I found this. Very interesting about rose hip oil. Scroll down toward the bottom to REGIMES FROM LIVING NATURE Pigmentation Issues such as Freckles, Age Spots, Malasma

Vitamin E is not really that good for the skin. If you dont have a rash you are lucky. I am allergic and some friends of mine are too. If you want to put vitamins on your scar, I recomment vitamin c, they say it is a really good scar treatment. I dont know how much you want to spend, but if you have the budget, try invicible scars. I use it, and I am allergic to all kinds of stuff, including vitamin e. This is hype-allergenic and it works very well.

Try Rosa Mosqueta Rose Hip Seed Oil

"used by South Americans for generations to treat dry skin, help reduce signs of premature aging and fade off blemishes such as dry skin ,pigmentation spots, stretch mark ,acne scars and sun spots. It has also proven to be particularly effective in the treatment of scars and burns by improving skin quality, color and texture. This applies to accidental and surgical scarring and skin which has been damaged by acne."

I haven't used it myself but it sure sounds great!

Vitamin E acts as a good nourishing agent to the skin preventing from looking dehydrated. It is helpful in scar healing. It can also be helpful in the fight against acne.
