helps scarring

I had some stretch marks from gaining weight quickly and once I lost weight the stretch marks were of course permanent. This minimized the stretch marks and took the redness out of them so that I could tan a little bit and they didn't look so bad. Is obviously an oil so quite oily for a while on the skin and doesn't get on clothes but a small price to pay for a good result.

Different for everyone.

i have tried Bio Oil a few times now to help with scaring and stretch marks. I didn't see any noticeable changes to the marks or scars, however i have known people to absolutely swear by this product to eliminate any unwanted marks and it has worked!

Tips: Try on yourself for a trial basis of about 2-4 weeks if you don't notice any changes this may not be the right product for you.

bio oil

I first tried bio oil when I was 14. I found that it really worked and I didn't get any more stretch marks until I was 16/17. While I was 14 I didn't care that I had stretch marks so I'd only use my bio oil whenever so around once a week maybe. I stopped using this when my bottle ran out, but this year I re purchased it thinking it'll help with my new stretch marks. But it hasn't. I'm very disappointed as I want to love bio oil like I did a few years back but it's just not working out.

Tips: Put this on after having a hot bath or hot shower, or make a body scrub using bio oil or have a bath and add a few drops of bio oil in it

i really had high hopes for this product , and i didnt see any change or improvement . the smell is ok , nothing amazing .although the bottle design does make it easy to use too much . now although i didnt have any results i know it worked for my brother on a scar he had on his back . so i guess it does work for some .. i just wasnt one of them

Bio oil

I used it with the aim to assist with scars. I haven't seen any improvement in scars in the two years I've used it. My skin has always been prone to dehydration since my first pregnancy and I must admit it has been great for hydration.

Not too bad

I have used Bio Oil on my scars and stretch marks for quite a few years now, as I got a lot of stretch marks when I was growing. I found that it definitely lessen the appearance of them, but it did take quite some time - longer than the 3 months like the bottle says. However, I have scars on my knees and face from a car accident and I did not find that it was hugely effective. I found that on the scar on my face (it goes down between my eyes and over my left eyelid) that the il sunk through my skin and stung my eye so I immediately stopped using it for this and found an alternative. For the scars on my knees, I did find that it lessened the purple-ness of the scars and slowly helped the redness to disappear to an extent, but not quite as I anticipated. Again, it definitely took longer than the 3 months. Overall, I found that it wasn't too bad on my stretch marks, but not so good on my scars and not suitable near the eyes!

Tips: Use for longer than 3 months to get good results.

Love it

I love bio oil, but I can understand also why others dont. I love using oil on my legs rather than a moisturiser because it makes them feel so smooth and I just overall like the feeling of oil on my skin. Bio oil absorbs nicely into my skin (particularly on my legs and smaller amounts on my forearms). I dont use it often but just use it as an alternative at times to give my skin a break from daily moisturiser. I have never used on scars, which is a main reason behind using this product so am not sure if this works on them or not. A little bit of bio oil goes a long way so the bottle lasts a long time.

Tips: Do not use too much otherwise can get very oily! Only need a little bit :)

unsure

I've had to children and used this product before bed every night throughout whole pregnancy and still got stretch marks... it is hard to say if it worked or not because it may have helped me not get as many.. suppose I'll never no but still chosen to use bio oil through my second pregnancy to.. had to put on before bed though because oil would rub of on clothing and stain. Smells nice

Tips: Be careful of clothing after putting oil on.. has marked a few of my clothing as doesn't absorb straight away

Bio Oil

I had 3 moles removed from my face a few years ago and my doctor suggested I use Bio Oil on my scars. I did take his advice and used it as directed. The scars were small so I wasn't sure how the results would be. The oil was quite lovely to use with a mild fragrance. It absorbed well into my skin and I didnt feel it was oily or greasy. I bought the 60ml bottle and it lasted about a year. You dont have to use too much as a tiny bit goes a long way. As far as the results go, I do have small scars but they are very hard to see. It left my skin feeling nourished and moistured.

Bio Oil

hmmmmm, Bio Oil.. The big fuss on specialist skincare for scars, winkles etc.. I myself purchased Bio Oil for a scar after getting a birthmark removed from my leg, one thing when buying that gave me second thought was the statement "applt twice daily for a minimum of 3 months" THREE MONTHS!! is this how long it would take before I started to see results? But I thought I would give it a good from plenty of recommendations etc.. I personally didn't think it was that great as it took awhile to work but I do think my scar has healed better than what it would of without using it. Although the scar is still quite visible, I think this product would work better for more minor things as stated such as dehydrated skin and minor stretch marks etc
