I have extensive scarring on my body and I'm generally enough to frighten small children out of swimming pools lol. The only thing I ever found that fades them is bio oil as wispy said, but then mine don't get worse I don't think with alcohol.What type of scar is it, as mine are brands and cuts, and I suppose it would make a differnce? You also have to use bio oil daily and use it for a while before you notice a difference, but it does make them look much less angry.
