Combination of Fraxel Laser with Obagi Newderm system for acne scarring

Gregory Turowski, MD, PhD answers: Alternatives to deep chemical peels?

Mydermatologist said some of my acne scars are deep, and I will need a deep peel for them. Are there other successful, more cost-effective alternatives to a deep chemical peel?

Preparingthe skin with Obagi Newderm system with Tretinoin prior to Fraxel laser procedure and in between treatments with proper spacing produces great results for acne scarring. It is safer than deep chemical peels as well as more predictible, healing is quick too.
