I'm currently using aloe vera gel in the morning and at night for my rolling acne scars. I'm wondering if it really makes any difference for the scars. Does it make them heal, or does it make it worse? I also use Retin - A Micro at night. I apply the aloe vera gel after.

It's great for red marks and active acne. I think it's also great to calm your skin, because Retin A causes irritation and inflammation.

I don't think it will do anything significant for your scarring for the reasons I mentioned. Nothing bad, but not anything to help indented scars.
