Vitamin E as a Topical

[fromchicago 0]

Is Vit. E good for a topical on a mark/depression that is 1-2 months old?

I've read that in clinical trials, Vitamin E either did nothing for scars or made them worse. =/

Really, even in old scars?

Hmm, not sure. Do a search on Yahoo for "vitamin e scars" and you'll come up with some stuff. I remember I found more negatives than positives.

I've also read that some studies have shown vitamin e does not help. However I had vicious acne -and people ask me why I'm not more scarred. I used vitamen E- took the gel out of the pill- and smeared it on my scars all the time. I think it helped.
