I have acne scars that have not responded well to various treatments. I am going to try my first CO2 laser, and am opting for the UltraPulse over the Core CO2 since the UltraPulse is more aggressive. I have some tethered scars. Will I need subcision before the UltraPulse? Will the UltraPulse be ineffective on tethered scars without subcision? Thank you!!
