Serrapeptase and Nattokinase
*Note that Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme and MUST be taken on an empty stomach or it is useless, as it will go after any food instead of its intended target. Take 1 hr before food and 2 hrs after food. Bedtime works best for most. â¥

Vitamin E is wonderful for scars! I had a bike accident and got road rash on my right arm, above the elbow. I went to urgent care to get it cleaned properly, and followed their directions for wound healing, but as SOON as it was all new skin (nothing open) I began applying Vitamin E oil. I found it in a small bottle at the expensive grocery store in the vitamin section.
I rubbed it on the new skin three to four time a day, especially after a shower or bath, and at bedtime. It's been one month since the crash and you can hardly see where the road rash was. I think it's helping with the lumpy painful bone bruise, too.
I also took a LOT of Vit C (4000-5000 mg/day) and I think that helped too.

Vitamin E Works! I remember when I was a kid my mom had fallen on her face (she slipped on loose dirt) and scraped her face -the right cheek bone area. It looked horrible almost like a 'rug burn'. It was about the size of a quarter & dark in color (my mom was fair). Someone told her to apply liquid Vitamin E on it daily and it will fade or go away. She did this numerous times a day for about one year and it was very successful! The scar eventually faded away completly!! I as a child was amazed and never forgot that remedy for scars!

Absolutely LOVE this site - I read this thread and thought I would add my 2 cents worth - When I was in my 20s I fell off a small boat which had a piece of metal that caught the back of my calf - not a deep cut, but a nice slice right up the middle. It healed but left a terrible scar - after about a year I did a bit of research (prior to any computers! ) and decided to try Vitamin E on the scar - I simply opened up a capsule (brand does not matter) and applied it to the scar twice a day - messy and gooey stuff, but it does absorb after an hour or so - after doing this for two weeks the scar disappeared. To this day you can't see a thing - this was 30 years ago and still my calf looks flawless! Easy to do and no side effects. Hope this helps!

Hi Bonnie, what a coincidence that I just saw your post as I was going to post one of my own. I have been reading a lot about Vit. E and C for scars. In my youth, over 40 years ago I was silly enough to play with a flame under something that melted and fell on my hand. It made a big hole that took time to heal and of course left a bad scar, like a bean. It never bothered me but I used to say that I couldn't rob banks without gloves otherwise it would be easy to recognize my hand. Lately I have been taking up to 5g of Vit. C and 400 to 600 IU of Vit. E and suddenly saw that although my scar hasn't disappeared it had got very flat.
I didn't try the oil on the scar itself only because to be honest I don't even think about this scar anymore but I have been trying it under my eyes, unfortunately without much luck. Many years ago I had little fat things (sorry, forget the name) and the skin doctor used laser on them with the result that I was left with a lot of little scars like warts. I had hoped that those would get better with the Vitamin E oil but that hasn't happened although I applied it twice a day for quite a while. I can't apply it at night anymore because the oil would run into my eyes and I would wake up with swollen eyes so I will maybe go on only during the day. Maybe I should persevere seeing that your scar disappeared completely.....
