Acne scarring treatments

Unfortunately there is no one true "go-to" answer for acne scarring. Many will alleviate some scarring, but most require multiple treatments and none will result in perfect skin and texture. You need to be realistic about any procedure you do. Of these two, I would say Fraxel, but that being said, there are potential additional side effects and skin color variations that you will need to be aware of and prepared for.

There are many options for deep acne scarring and no one is so great. LaViv is a new product that uses your own cells to improve the deep acne scars. It looks promising.
