What is the best way to remove acne scars on my face? Fraxel, Chemical Peels, or something else?

We have been really happy with the results from Active FX and Deep FX combined treatment. However, different patients have different kinds of scars, and may need other approaches.Treating acne scars may require patience on your part and the part of your surgeon.

Different steps may be necessary. Some scars benefit from excision, some need fillers injection, and some are best treated by old-fashioned dermabrasion. You should talk to a surgeon with an extensive experience in treatment of acne scarring, and discuss your expectations.
