Hello
In our office we have 2 lasers done together that would give you great results Profractional laser and micro laser peel. If after that treatment you were looking for more we would recommend a mini face lift to stretch out your skin from the scar that are deep. You should see a PS to help you give you permanent options for you situation. Good luck.

Acne Scars and Fraxel treatments. I like using co2 laser resurfacing and a multilayered approach
I have many people who have told me that fraxel hasn't worked for them. I believe in the multilayered approach with co2 laser resurfacing.

Total FX for acne scars
Total FX (Active plus Deep) is going to be more effective than traditional Fraxel for acne scars. Dermabrasion is another more aggressive you and your surgeon may consider.

Fraxel vs CO2 Laser
Sasha, I do not know what types of scarring you are referring to. Nevertheless, the CO2 laser, either fractionated or not, is more effective. Did your physician offer you both? I would ask to see photos of his/her actual patients.
Hope this helps.
