    Diminish burn mark on face
    Hello,

    I got a small burn mark on my nose. Is there anything I can apply to help diminish the scar? It looks like a pimple!

    Thank you

    I have heard that vitamin E helps with scars. You can buy vitamin E oil at Walgreens. Plus, it's good for your skin in general.

    Calendula ointment, helps to heal wounds and burns due to the ingredient of flavonoids. Calendula comes from the marigold herb and it's also rich in antioxidants, is a natural antibiotic, and it promotes blood cell growth in regenerating skin tissue therefore speeding the healing process.

    Also bio oil can be beneficial, as it is also rich in calendula oil, vitamin E & A, lavender, rosemary, and chamomile oil.

    Remember to use a sunblock to protect and prevent the area from darkening. If the area becomes dark, tretinoin (retin-a) will help remove the scared area.
