Everyone LISTEN to me. Please do not try and guess at homeopathy. You can cause serious aggravations as I have read on your posts. DO NOT use above 6x silicea. Take 2x daily only,until improvement. Do not go higher. Anything thing above the X's will not benefit you only aggravate the symtoms! When using homeopathy the symstoms will get worse before getting better. Do not do anything different. The things that will antidote remedies is as follows:
coffee
tea
menthol
mint
ANY strong sents(incense,air deor.,perfume,ect..)
toothpaste with any sent or flavor(mint,ect...)
Do not use herbs or herb teas or on skin
Also take take only 3pellets under tongue
All these will stop your remedy from working
Thank you

Grr, I started this homeopathic medicine caled silicea 6x. Ive been taking it for a little over two weeks. My indented scars are nearly done and my spots are clearing up, but it is making me break out esp. around my mouth which is the worst. It is supposed to push anything foreign out of your body, scar tissue, clogged pores, any toxins and junk. I don't know if i should stick with it!!! Any one please help. Any time I see a new zit or two or three, i think maybe I should just give up on this.
6c is more diluted than 6x I believe, really you want somethinng less diluted than 6x, the homemade silicea that Im taking is aroudn 2x apparently.
You don't need to buy anything its easy to make.
The instructions about what affects homeopathy may not all contradict silicea. I have not noticed it anyway and Im still using my toothpaste etc
This method strays a little from homeopathy because we are using lower dilutions then are typical of homepathic rememdies.
Day 20 and my skin is so bad, so much acne etc. but activity at red marks too, hoping it will improve soon.
hi, u are on day 20? has ur skin got significantly bad since taking the silicea? were u sort of clear and just wanting to work on scars, but now it is bringing out all the clogged pores? sorry so many questions...i am just wanting to know what will happen...i managed to get a hold of silica 6...no letter after it so i am assuming that is strong...

Hi, there will be a letter after it because the 6 alone means nothing, it's just the case that different homeopaths use different dilutions I believe, some use the x to give potency and some use the c.
Yes I was acne free practiclaly for a year before the silicea. It's definately the silicea thats brought stuff to the surface becos I have acne on my chest and back that has appeared also, which rules out a topical.
The acne is forming where I have red marks / scars but other places too. Maybe its wise to do a month or two of the acne clearing homepathic method first if you still get some acne.
This is the best place to find out about silicea for acne scars..

I have some homeopathic stuff it's a mixture that I used to take. It has those things in it. Maybe I'll start taking it again. yea I used to not have any zits but i had indented scars that wouldn't clear. Now my scars are clearing and I am breaking out (not too bad tho). I think it may be antidoting my birth control pill becuase this month was the worst. I thought I was going ot die. haha jk but i have pcos so it was bad.

Day 24
Your still breaking out? me too. but only small spots, other than the huge one I still have (tho its healing now) from last week. I have a feeling I may break out for some months on silicea as my skin heals
if I don't have anything on my skin, at night and when Im at home its fine and they are small and go quick but (I think the reason I had the huge one last week) when the silicea tries to expel and when I have sunscreen and make up on (as I always do when I leave the house) it blocks the stuff being expelled and the spots can get inflamed, grr.
maybe it is the sunscreen...i can't wear anything like that because it is too greasy for my skin...even stuff that says "oil free" makes me break out...grrrr!
I changed my routine.
1.) cetephil cleanser
2.) tone with ACV ( use a cotton ball with water, then the ACV swipe face)
3.) use A+D cream with aloe. Zinc oxide
I'm getting so clear. My marks are fading fast everyday. I can conceal with makeup. and the girls at work say my marks are gone. Yeah.
without make up they are still slightly visibble , but 80 -85 % clear!! In 4 days.
I think Im going to try this. It makes you break out though? Ive been using a very light glycolic peel, and my face is FINALLY pretty much clear. Do you only break out where your scars are?
And to those of you who have used it, how old are your scars and what kind?
I have some small icepicks that are 1-4 years old, and rolling scars, I think thats what they are, there in my laugh lines and on my chin-kind of also laugh lines I guess...I think they are rolling scars though. Does it only help with icepicks?
Oh, and does anyone have any before and after pics? Ill probably try it anyways, its worth a shot.
I've been lazy about taking it. Ive skipped days and only taken 3 pellets 1x a day. my bottle is almost gone so I'm stretching it out a little.
Its not helping any scars for me, but then again its slow acting and you don't see results right away. I had probably 2 or 3 come to a head. that were redmarks. . they are faded but I'm still not there yet. I still can see them slightly under my make up. I don't have pics sorry. Maybe I should take some now. hmm. I'll think about it.
Im just wondering, I never really had cystic acne, but I did OCCASIONALY get cyst type acne(just one or two in a 6 month period I would estimate), do you think silica would break me out really bad? Or does it just depend on the toxins in your body? I am a smoker and an occasional drinker, and I LOVE coffee (although I would probably stop drinking it if I chose to do the silica thing), so I would say I have a lot of toxins in my body. I just don't want to make the scaring worse while trying to improve it. Anyone get more scars from the breakouts with this stuff? Just wondering,
thanks,

I didn't get any scars, I got like little brown marks where i got a blemish but they went away in a week or two. Most of my spots are gone now. The woman at my pharamacy told me it's not supposed to break u out, but i certainly did. I too eat a lot of shitty foods. If you decide to take start slow on it and you prolly won't break out too bad.
I haven't scarred from it, I only had a few breakouts so far. It just depends on your skin. Everyone is different. If I were you I'd start taking it, and then If you start to break out reduse your dosage a little. I was afraid my face would explode in zits, but it hasn't... yet. (cross my fingers.) Just listen to your skin and take it from there. Definately make sure you are eleminating properly, so your toxins have a means for excape. I my self feel like I've had the flu. But,... people at my work are sick too so maybe its not from the silica. Not sure. But I do think it is draining my lymphatic system. keep us posted on your progress. Hope it works out well for you!
Does anyone know if it would be ok to do the lemon/ACV thing while taking silica? I just started the lemon/ACV yesterday, and am planning to get some silica this week. Also, is it best not to wear makeup while on silica, so that the toxins dont get "trapped" on your skin?
Also, how long was it until you guys saw results? One post said that it worked immediatly for them, but does that mean the next day, week, month? Any results would be wonderful, Im just wondering how you can tell its working and when to give up if its not...
thanks!

I use ACV as a toner while on silica, I don't think it will hurt. I aslo still use makeup. It's up to you what you fell best doing. I haven't seen immidiate results. It took a week for me to break out. I only had a few so no big deal. I just had one on my forehead the other day. but I don't seem to be breaking out that much. but I also am not taking that much silica either. I think the ACV/ lemon will work great to diminish the redmarks. ACV helps the ph level on your skin.
