Default anyone clear acne scars naturally (as in anything that is not expensive)

my pigmentation has improved alot, and from far away I think I look good and in pictures. But when someone gets really close to my face, they can see some deep scars on my cheeks (there's alot)

My cheeks are kind of chubby, so if I lose weight there, do you think it'll get bettter? but I'm a physically active( soccer intermurals and running), and I have to eat alot of pasta, so that'd be hard.

and I can't do anything thats too expensive, I'd ask my mom for some $$$ but she works 2 dead end jobs for 5 kids, and it'd be silly to spend more than 100$ and use her money, when I don't work.

Try to get aloe vera gel, if its too expensive maybe you can check the net for a way to make it by yourself. I used this herbalife aloe vera gel my mom had and had significant results though i stopped after awhile cause i didn't care anymore.

(And the pleasing thing was, when i stopped caring, the acne seemed to improve itself too)

I second aloe vera gel. It's not pricey
Also try hydrogen peroxide. I don't know how deep your acne scars are, but I am currently using hydrogen peroxide just swiping it on my face twice a day, and my acne scars are lightening and leaving. Here's hoping it works for you.

If you are very careful, I recommend the TCA peel.

These peels are industrial strength, and used in dermatologist offices, most often by rich women who have sun damage or fine lines. They significantly and almost instantly improve the look of scars and even some small pitting of skin. WARNING: If you're not careful, you will give yourself a chemical burn.

Any deep scarring may not respond to any treatment. In that case, when you get a job and can afford it, go to the dermatologist and they will use a filler to raise up the pits.

Buy vitamin E gel capsules. Cut them and lightly spread the gel on your face. Let it sit for 10ish minutes and then rinse your face. It works best for newer scars, but lightens the old ones too. (funny as I type this I have some on my face right now!) This helps with wrinkles as well. Double bonus! A jar of 300 costs under $10.

I think I'll add aloe to my regimen too.
