How can I treat cystic acne scars without prescription meds or a natural way?

I've been off accutane for a few months but now I have a few cystic acne scars on the side of my face from the severe acne I had. What kind of cream could I use or natural supplement could I take to heal the scars, repair the damaged skin or make the cystic acne scars shrink.

Please do not recommend any facial peels, doctor prescription drugs or injections. I've had a few shots of cortizone to the scars but with minimal results and I spent alot of $$. I'm currently using over the counter Cicaplast cream which costs me $25 for a small tube.

    Vitamin E (comes in capsules & ointment) is the best natural topical for any scars & it wouldn't hurt to try Apple-Cider Vinegar to help prevent acne..about 1tbsp three times a day. It doesn't taste very good so maybe mix it in a drink (&/or add honey). This is only one of the many things vinegar helps. Let me know what happens. Good Luck.

    Eating correct is the key to fighting off acne. If you consume foods that are quite oily, which have quite little dietary worth, and which are very processed or artificial, you are filling your body with fats, toxins, and excess sugar.

    Iron rich foods are your first line of defense. It can be a symptom of anemia. Then try the natural supplements the others suggested.

    get vitamin E gel capsules, break them, and rub the gel over your scars. or try emu oil. I've used vitamin E on scars before and it's really helped them fade and diminish. I've heard emu oil can also help, but I've never tried it myself.
