If this is for you: then yes you can apply it to your acne scars. It'll will be more of a moisturizer than anything else. Were you thinking of using it for scar minimizing? What other things are you using for your scar treatment?

Other suggestions: Aloe vera will help with local irritation, but for areas of increased pigment, some other creams including those with a soy base are available as well.

Acne scars: I like to break open and apply vitamin E capsules to help with old acne scars. Also, many chemical peels and dermabrasion will work.
