Acne can leave behind dark spots and scars. In order to avoid this problem and achieve a scarless repair, there are several creams and products you can try. This type of treatment is the gentlest alternative for scar treatment and, as such, might take longer to produce noticeable effects.

Firstly, treat acne in an adequate and timely fashion to reduce your chances of developing scars. This is why it is important to follow a daily cleansing routine with an acne cream that can control your acne breakouts. As with all things, not all acne creams are adequate for every type of skin or acne.

The most important part of your acne cream is that it helps deal with clogged pores and acne bacteria. Products that contain salicylic acid and retinol are excellent way of dealing with clogged pores. Benzoyl peroxide, on the other hand, has antibacterial properties in addition to helping eliminate clogged pores.

If you have dry and sensitive skin these products may be too harsh for your skin. To treat acne in combination with these skin types, you should be relentless with your moisturizer. A moisturizer will help strengthen dry skin and keep bacteria from entering the skin.

If your acne treatment hasn't prevented scar formation, then it's time to try acne scar repair. Remember, you can always rely on some creams to help you eliminate these bothersome blemishes. Make sure to read the product labels before buying any cream.

There are two excellent ingredients that you should look for: rose hip seed oil (or rosa mosqueta, musk rose or rosa moschata) and snail serum (or helix aspersa muller glycoconjugates). Rose hip oil is pressed from the hips of a bush found in South America. Snail serum is derived from the common brown snail.

Rose hip seed oil has been used by the indigenous peoples of South America for centuries to treat dry skin, eczema and rosacea. Even now rose hip oil is being used to treat rashes that are associated to allergic reactions and even stretch marks. It has a low viscosity which means it is absorbed very quickly by the skin.

Snail serum is another excellent, natural product. It has been used since the time of Hippocrates to treat acne, small pox and the measles. Not long ago it was rediscovered in a heliciculture farm in Chile, South America.

The people working in this farm noticed that the wounds on their hands had begun to heal quicker than usual. They quickly noticed that it was due to their contact with the snails. It wasn't soon after this that snail serum began being used in all types of skin care products.

Both products are gentle yet can effectively achieve scar less repair. In fact, they help promote the production of collagen making it possible for a wound to heal without leaving behind scars.
