Vitamin E oil
A potent antioxidant, Vitamin E is useful for a range of topical applications, including treating burns, reducing wrinkles, healing irritations, and protecting against sun damage. Many physicians, surgeons, and wound technicians use and recommend Vitamin E to help reduce scarring from surgery or injury. Vitamin E is also a popular treatment for post-pregnancy stretch marks, which is supported by a number of studies.
