I know it helps to break down scar tissue, but I am not sure how it would work in the eye area. -elizabeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 I had a horrible keloid, a scar that went awry, on my neck. I tried everything from injecting frozen ice to silicon to zinc to Vit E. It completely went within 3 weeks high dosing of EPA found in Omega 3 fatty acids. EPA is anti-thrombotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-arrhythmic. Not only did my scar disappear but my depression of 20 years lifted and I have never looked back.- Re: Scar tissue prevention > > > > > >Hi > > >Does anyone know of any way to reduce the build up of scar > tissue? > > you may want to do some research on Evening Primrose oil.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 That is quite a testimony ! Thanks for sharing! My 11 year old grandson has scars on his face that start at his eys go to the middle of his nose and across his cheek from a dog bite. He was blessed to still have his eye! I would love to know which product you used and what the dosage was.
