Yes ma'am, i had a hot water, 3rd degree burn scar on my back. It's almost been 7-8 years. I cannot feel any roughness on my skin but it has left a hyperpigmentation scar. Since i had read about frankincense essential oil in the past, I've just recently placed an order for Frankincense Sacra which is from Oman. There are many kinds of Frankincense available in the market. I've listed some below 1) Frankincense Serrata- India 2) Frankincense Catarri - Somalia 3) Frankincense Frereana- Higher attitudes Somalia 4) Frankincense Sacra- Oman If you were to compare the best Frankincese among the four, Frankincese Sacra would be the one anyone would go for. Now, that's according to what I've read. I want to know from you, which frankincese is actually good for Scars( Any kind). Here is my Question, 1) Will the dark Pigmentation Scar vanish after a period of time if i apply Frankincese ( Boswellia) Sacra to it. If yes, then how long would it take for the Pigmentation Scar to totally disappear. Awaiting your reply. Thanking You, Aaron.D.Fernandes

Hi I am having a knee surgery in a few weeks. I’m interested in the best ratio for applying to my skin/scar. Thanks!!

Hi Amy what oil wld you recommend for a recent mastectomy scar?

Thanks for watching! Happy to be connected!

Thanks for watching! What was your favorite part?

Very welcome

Glass!

Gosh! I don't know much about that particular condition, I'm not a Dr. But I love using carrier oils and essential oils to make the skin feel and look better. Hoping you got some good info that can help you....thanks for your comment

Raw unrefined virgin is best!

Oooh those would be wonderful to mix together! I'd also try and get some rose hip seed if you can!

Sure! Thanks for watching. If you are making a 1ounce face oil for example, I would not add in more than 12 drops (total) of your essential oils. So if you are combing essential oils then the total amount needs to equal 12 drops - make sense?

@@officialamygalper Ahhh, I get it. Thank you so much.

that's amazing! thanks for sharing this

Amazing thanks for sharing ❤ sorry for asking , what’s FCO ? Just curious

@Super Nero: FCO is fractionated coconut oil

Yes I do train people! Please email me and I can answer more questions: amy@amygalper.com

that's amazing!

Oh my...those are not easy...best you can do is try and soften them. I'd rely on rose hip, hemp seed, avocado oils

@@officialamygalper thank you again

I am not sure what you are asking? But yes, carrier oils are different than essential oils. But thisn video is about essential oils. And all essential oils need to be diluted into carrier oils before being applied to the skin.

Oh my...well first of all - I'n not a doctor! So I can't give any advice from that perspective. And this definitely sounds like a tricky situation. All I can suggest is using carrier oils like Rose hip seed oil works wonders, and try also a tiny bit of sea buckthorn or buriti carrier oils...but at small dilutions since they can stain (temporarily) the skin. So what I mean by dilute is use either of the 2 oils at 1/2 tsp in 1 ounce of rose hip. sorry I can't be of more help

sure you can - but first mix them into a carrier oil like rosehip oil which has been shown to improve the appearance of the skin. In one ounce of carrier oil add between 8 -12 drops of essential oil total.

For the scarring, first wait until the stitches are out and the swelling is down a bit, then I would use the oils I shared in this video...but include butters like Shea, Cocoa and even Mango....you can watch my video on the "anti-aging butter...that recipe could be great for scars too!

I'm having a tummy tuck the scar is large. Which oil would you suggest works best for me?

10% dilution is the amount per quantity you are making. So if you are making a 1 ounce bottle, 10% dilution would be 60 drops.

I am not a doctor. But I would think if the skin is healed and there are no open wounds, or oozing, the oils would feel soothing. like a moisturizer

you could try all 5 mixed together 1-2 drops of each, or one at a time! That is up to you!

SO sorry it has taken me so long to reply! I only just found your comment. I hope you are recovering well, and feeling stronger. Never use essential oils directly on scars, always dilute them down into carrier oils. And the best carrier oils that I'd use in your situation are: rosehips, avocado, pumpkin seed, carrot seed, sea buckthorn (but use a very tiny bit of this one because it can stain your skin temporarily) and jojoba. Butters are also a good choice, like shea, mango and cocoa. I'd check out my "anti-aging butter recipe video...that would be a good one to try. Please keep me posted! And please share more about what you do!

@Amy Galper oh yes she dilutes them with olive oil. The st John's wort oil is working like magic.

Oh my -- hot cooking oil! First of all I am so sorry that it has taken me so long to write you back. To answer your question, yes you can do it 3 times a day. Thanks for watching! Let me know what other kinds of topics you'd like!

yes!

Hmmm...I wouldn't use oils directly on babies...can you tell me what this would be for? And then I can better advise you

Yes! I would try the following blend. But this takes a month or more to see results and you should apply it 2 X a day. Carrier Oils: Try 50 grams of Rosehip Oil, 25 grams borage oil, 1 gram of sea buckthorn oil, 24 grams of pumpkin seed oil and then add the following blend of essential oils: 4 drops of Lemon 5 drops of Helichrysum 3 drops of Carrot Seed 4 drops of Frankincense 3 drops of Geranium hope this helps!

@@officialamygalper thank u so much for your suggestions mam..😘❤️

Hi Moukda so sorry for my delay. Myrrh is a lovely oil to add! It works as well. So you can totally add that to your list! Butters are really good here as your base. Keep me posted how it goes...

Both are lovely and very safe for children. But make sure the Frankincesne is the botanical name: Boswellia carteri (syn. sacra). and NOT the serrata!

I'm not a doctor! But you could try making a breast massage oil? I'd use all the oils I suggest in the video and do a gently massage to see if that softens it a bit?

​@@officialamygalperThank you

I would try and use mostly carrier oils instead of essential oils, I'd look to evening primrose, borage, rose hips and hemp seed oil, and if you want to use an essential oil I'd try frankincense, but only use 1 drop per tsp of your carrier oil mix.

No! You should always dilute essential oils into a carrier before applying to the skin.

Hmmm over 10 years ago...that is tricky. Not sure anything will be able to really fade it. But you might want to try Rosehip Seed oil directly, but that is a carrier oil. For a blend of essential oils I'd try Fennel Seed, Lemon and geranium. But if the scars on on your face, don't use a lot. In one TBSP of carrier oil mix, 2 drops of lemon, 1 drop of fennel and 2 drops of geranium. try that maybe? Keep me posted,

@@officialamygalper i will try this, thank you so much..

When the scabs are gone and healed you can start applying oils and see if there are any changes! Sorry that happened to you...sounds painful. I'm not a DR...but I've helped my skin look a little better from using carrier oils and essential oils...that's been my own personal experience

Try using Frankinces, Helichrysum and carrot Seed...but make sure to always dilute them into Rose hip seed oil!

What about using castor oil? It’s a miracle worker -how might I incorporate it into a treatment for stretch marks?

I have no idea! But it can't hurt to try. And keep me posted

Thank u ma

Old scars are really hard to get rid of. But you can try to lighten their appearance. All the oils I mention in this video can help with possibly lightening their appearance.

no it should NEVER burn! Please don't add helichrysum directly to scar, it should always be diluted before applying. How did you use it?

yes! email me directly at : amy@amygalper.com

it is NOT! It's an essential oil!

Essential oils aren't comodogenic in general. Just FYI.

Hello! I am not a doctor! You should try and find a doctor! I am sorry I can't help...but if you want to lessen the appearance of the scar, you can mix some of these oils together....and gently massage over the area.

thanks

I would work with lavender and frankincense essential oils!

Should I use both of them mam

For which oil we should dilute 1% - 3% carrier oil or essential oil

​@@user-dk1xk6dg9r I always keep a bottle of St John's wort oil in my arsenal. Very handy for fresh burns and itching from mosquitoes, or skin irritations. You can apply it directly to your skin as it is a carrier oil therefore available in bigger quantities which should last longer. All the best

HAHAHA...seriously? Nope! thanks so much what a complement! Glad we are connected here

That's a tough one! Not sure if an essential oil can actually totally remove it, but using carrier oils and essential oils probably can help soften them and reduce slightly their appearance
