Honey is used to treat a variety of skin problems including eczema. The soothing, antiseptic and antibacterial properties in honey can reduce eczema and heal eczema scars to a great extent.
- Daily apply honey directly onto the affected skin area after washing it thoroughly.
- You can also make a scrub using honey and crystallized sugar. Scrub the affected area with it gently for a few minutes and then rinse it off. Do this a few times a week until the scar is completely gone.
