Dark acne scars on back - should I continue with microneedling or try other options? (photos)

iulia88
Hello everyone, Since last year in April, after I stopped taking Diane 35 at my gynecologist’s request, my back got filled with acne that later caused dark scars. Since then I tried 1 chemical peeling, 1 time laser which caused other scaring and had a round of intensive microneedling 1 time / week for 6 weeks, which I think it caused more scarring. I don’t know what else to try, I never had acne in my life and I got it at 34. Shall I continue with micro needling or other options?
