Would Vivace or fractionated CO2 laser be better at treating my large cheek pores and orange peel texture? (Photos)

Asked By:tinny26 in Budapest, HU

I am 24 with poor texture on my cheeks due to genetics/over use of retinoids I have gotten 6 dermapen treatments and noticed some improvement but texture is still there. My derm has recommended frac CO2 but I am wary of lasers as I got ipl for capillaries and this caused lumps to form. So I wonder if my skin is sensitive? Vivace is offered by another derm would this be a better option as it seems less extreme and less downtime or do you think that because dermapen hasn't worked neither will vivace?
