As mentioned before, it will take some time especially depending on the overall size(with appropriate amount of use). Thank You

I'm pretty sure it does not. It does help smooth skin, but I have a scar on my jaw and one near my eyebrow and neither has changed in appearance in any way.

Not much seems to work for melasma, I bought this specifically for that. I've developed quite a bit over the last 5 years. Almost my entire forehead and on both cheeks and various lighters patches all over the face. I've been using this for about a month, once a week. So far, I don't see any difference in the melasma patches. My skin does look smoother, but no difference in melasma. I get acne marks too and those usually lighten over time on their own, but I haven't even seen any difference in the acne marks after 4 uses. I haven't had any peeling or redness at all, so I think I' can probably go to twice a week and see if I get any results with that. I don't want to make a final decision until I'm done with the entire bottle.

This product is exactly like Pro-Active acne treatment but much milder and easier on the skin. This group doesn't specifically address scars/darkening. There ARE, however, many, many products to remove acne scars and discoloration. I bet many are available right here on Amazon.

Yes it will. But it will not fade it evenly. If you plaster your whole skin, the parts of your face with thinner skin will fade faster than the areas with thicker skin, leaving you looking like your have vitiligo ....see recent pics of Lark Voorhies for an example of what will likely occur.....

That is an interesting question! I had a pretty good acne scar that I thought would never go away and, recently, noticed that I could hardly see it anymore. I wonder if using this product is what did that? It was in the same area where my skin was getting rough, which is what prompted me to buy it to begin with. It did wonders for softening up my skin...maybe it toned down that scar as well? It's worth a shot. :)

I believe if you religiously use the product some lightening will occur but I am not sure about scars. A good dermatologist can better serve you with lasting results in my opinion

It won't make scars disappear but will soften and help reduce scar tissue by massaging a little extra each time used, as will any good skin cream.

I have been using this product every evening for a little over thirty days and I would say that "yes" it has improved the fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes. It has also helped to lighten my hyperpigmentation from old blemish scars that would not go away. I'm 37 years of age with olive complexion and combination skin.

It should help to soften the scar tissue. It will NOT remove it. It may slightly reduce the appearance, but it is not a clinical cream and not nearly strong enough to remove it completely.

Regular use will soften scars over time, but not overnight. It helps if you follow up with a good moisturizer, as it tends to dry out skin. I've been using it for one month on scars left on my neck from an allergic rash and definitely they have softened in appearance.

I'm not sure.. All I know is that it lightened my scars a bit but it's still there

Yes, it will. With me, I use the product to lighten darkening skin, razor burn, and old acne marks. I had a raised dime-size mole on my face I tested to see if the product would lighten it. I had a better than expected result. The mole dissolved away and no visible mark! Satisfied with the results, I stop using. I noticed some darkening returning. So, I use a very light layer daily in those areas to keep it the same as my skin tone. I'll see what happens when I stop again.

The description is more for hair bumps than scars. This does not fade discoloration it just prevents hair bumps and ingrown hair only.

In my case, it doesn't work very well on decreasing the redness of the scar. I have been using it for 4 months now. All that I can say is it works to stop the scar from spreading out, and softens it as well. However, to minimize the scar would take a rather long time (imo). The bottle would last me another 5 months, and I hope I could see some distinct results.

I agree with Michelle, don't remember this ever working on a scar. But it should definitely help the acne issue. Just do NOT use a lot because it will really irritate your skin.

I had some darker pigment on my nose from an accident and it does seem to lighten it. Keep in mind, you'll have to use a sunscreen. This product works for me.
