Best Laser for Skin Rejuvenation?

I'm 28 and looking for a laser treatment that addresses fine lines, mild acne scarring, and sun damage and tightening. I've had micro laser peels in the past and was not too impressed with the results. My biggest concerns are the lines/small folds under my eyes, fine lines from nose to mouth, and overall texture/tone. Would Active FX or Fraxel CO2 be effective for my needs? I would prefer a laser that only requires 1 or 2 treatments.

A: Active FX for fine lines and acne scars

We have found Active/ Total FX to be a great treatment for fine lines and acne scars in younger patients. Healing time is generally about one week, and all patients have noted significant improvement. For facial rejuvenation, one treatment is usually all that is needed, however for acne scars patients may want a touch up treatment after 3 months.
