Fraxel is an entirely safe laser for acne and acne scars. Depending on skin type I perform the Fraxel or eMatrix daily for patients with all types of scars, stretch marks, and wrinkles. Fraxel is a fabulous laser and it generally takes several treatments a month apart for the full results. My patients have been thrilled with the results. Please consult a board certified dermatologist with a great deal of experience with Fraxel laser for the best cosmetic results.
Acne scars come in many different forms which include contoured or rolling acne scars, pitted acne scars, box-type acne scars, hypertrophic and keloid acne scars, hypopigmented and hyperpigmented scars. The right treatment for your scars depends what type of scar is being treated. Please schedule with an expert who has lots of experience, is skilled in all of the options and has many before and after photos of scars that look like your scars the he/she has treated.
