Have you got a skin complexion that you are not happy with? Then you are not alone. There are thousands of people that are moaning right now over a scar, stretch mark or even blemishes left by bad acne as a teenager. To go with those thousands of people are hundreds of products all claiming to reduce the look of or even eliminating such scars. One of these products is Bio Oil. The manufacturers of this product claim to drastically reduce the appearance and feel of your unsightly scars and stretch marks.
One thing to remember is that no two people react the same way to products so just because it worked on Aunt Susie or the neighbour down the road, does not necessarily mean it will work for you, so don't be disappointed if you don't get the same results. For Bio Oil to work it must be used regularly, at least twice a day for a continuous period of time. The changes that you can expect to get from using Bio oil vary from minimal to great change but you can expect to see:
· Stretch marks are permanent, no creams will eliminate these but what you will see is a reduced redness and darkened areas will fade around the troubles area.
· If you have darkened skin areas, these will lighten to blend with the surrounding area.
· Bio Oil can work well on raised scars giving a much smoother appearance making them look lighter and less red. The product should not be used on fresh scars and should wait for them to heal slightly.
· Darkened blemishes left behind by teenage acne. You should notice a lightening of these areas blending the skin tones to surrounding areas.
As with any cosmetic product there is always speculation and reports saying that it doesn't really work. There are many factors that have to be considered such as skin tones, severity of the imperfection, and sensitivity of the skin it is being used on and how long the oil has been used for.
If you research the product you will always find arguments against using it. Some analyse the ingredients and find one that they do not recommend you use on your skin. Remember this product has had to pass strategic tests to even be sold on the market. All ingredients have had to be passed individually and none are tested on animals.
The decision is yours but if you have any doubts then check with a dermatologist or your doctor before using Bio Oil.
