MiXto SX CO2 Fractional Laser for Acne Scars when Fraxel Failed?

Tags: acne scars
I have bad acne scars for years. For the last 2 years I had went through 6 sessions of Fraxel. There is improvement on my scars but it is still no where near the 'normal' clear skin. Is there anyway for my skin to be'normal' looking again? I read that 1 session of MiXto SX CO2 Fractional Laser has the same result as 6 sessions of Fraxel. Will MiXto SX CO2 Fractional Laser help me?

If you have ice pick acne (deep holes), only removal and closure of the acne scars will work.
