lotions and cleansers that contain glycolic acid (>8%) helps
you may consider vitamin C serum which works but more expensive

Try mederma!! it's supposed to be the best. It's about 23 dollars though but since it works..it's worth it.

Re: store products that help scars????
mederma is great for scars. I would reccomend that for any older scars you have since they are usually the most difficult to get rid of. I've been using Olay Regenerist serum and that seems to he helping, but I don't believe my scars are all that old. What you use depends on how old your scars are and what works best for your face since everyone's skin is different. You might want to start with the glycolic cleanser ronlee suggested.
