Which would you recommend; Dermapen vs. fractional laser for acne scarring? (photos)

sammy_martini55
I have acne scarring from cystic pimples when I was younger. They're shallow boxcar type. I also have large pores and just all over uneven texture. I've had one dermapen treatment before, a derma roller treatment and laser before but never continued treatments because of money issues. This time I want to go all the way and get all the number of treatments I need done to achieve desired results. I know it takes time. Which treatment should I choose? Photo attached.
