How many treatments of microdermabrasion for hyperpigmentations and moderate acne scars? And how long?

Dave20
I'm scheduled for microdermabrasion in 3 weeks. I have a lot of red marks and hyperpigmentations on my cheeks and I'm wondering how many estimated treatments of microdermabrasion would someone with moderate acne scars/marks usually need? I have light skin. Also how many days or weeks are the rest time between treatments? Lastly, do ALL dermatologists prescribe Hydroquinone along with microdermabrasion or does it vary with doctors?
