It's not an acne scar, it's on my arm from a burn that I got a few years
ago.

Anyone know what a good dosage would be?

I don't think it matters what kind of scar it is. MSM is not
medicine. It is food. I think about 1000 mg a day is a good part of
your diet. Of course, if you lived on raw fruits and vegetables and
perhaps sushi, or swallowed whole rodents, you would get that in your
diet. But if you eat mostly cooked food, you probably need a
supplement.

Thanks for your reply. I actually have a bottle of 1000 mg MSM capsules.
Would it be better to get it in 500mg so I can take it twice a day? If not,
what would be the best time of the day to take the 1000mg pill? Thanks.

As I understand it, your body can store a considerable amount of MSM,
so it makes little difference whether you take 250 mg 4 times a day,
or 1000 mg once a day. I think it you take it after a meal (on a full
stomach), you absorb it pretty well.
