CO2 Laser on entire face for acne scars on left cheek?
I have shallow acne scarring on my left cheek. I've had numerous treatments (TCA 35%, Erbium Laser, as well as fillers. The scarring bothers me enough and interferes with my life. I'm 25 years old. Treating acne since 16, scarring since 20. I only have this one area. Would I need to have CO2 over my entire face? I do have skin textures issues but I wouldn't do CO2 to address them. I'd rather concentrate on my scarring. Although it's shallow, Erbium doesn't seem to be enough. Thanks so much.
