Traditional Chinese medicine believes that acne on the face of women is mostly caused by heat and dampness toxins, or by poor digestion and water metabolism in the spleen and stomach. When dampness and heat invade the lungs, which govern the skin, pimples and acne will appear on the face. Some women try various methods to get rid of acne, but often end up with stubborn acne scars. What can be done? Below, I will introduce a dietary therapy for removing acne scars, which can effectively eliminate acne scars on the face.
[Name of Medicinal Diet]
Coix Seed and Lily Porridge
[Ingredients]
50g coix seed, 15g lily, honey as needed. Wash the coix seed and lily, put them in a pot, add an appropriate amount of water, and cook until the coix seed is soft and mushy. Add honey and mix well. Serve hot. Any woman with acne on her face can eat this regularly and will be pleasantly surprised by the results.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, coix seed has a cooling nature and a sweet, bland taste. It has the functions of promoting water circulation, eliminating dampness, dispelling wind and dampness, clearing heat and promoting pus drainage, and strengthening the spleen and stopping diarrhea. Lily has a slightly cold nature, a sweet taste, and a slight bitterness. It can moisten the lungs and relieve cough. When used together, they can not only eliminate acne on the face of women, but also remove acne scars!

In addition to the above dietary therapy for removing acne scars, women can also use vitamin E and ginger slices to apply on the face. They are also effective in removing acne and acne scars. Vitamin E can be applied on the face before going to bed every night and washed off the next morning. Ginger slices can be applied on the face for 15 to 20 minutes and then washed off. This method may cause a slight discomfort on the face, but it is tolerable. Regardless of which method is used, persist for one week and the acne scars will visibly lighten. Additionally, washing the face with green tea every day can also help remove acne scars, as green tea has anti-inflammatory properties.
