Considering laser. Would like ablative. Or should I go for microneedling? I’m 47. The older I get the worse my skin looks. No acne problems now just the pin holes and severe scarring. It’s so embarrassing. I want to see a professional who knows what they are doing. Not these fly by facial places. Please advise me what to do.

Answer: Acne scarring Thank you for your question! We have seen dramatic results in our patients with acne scarring after a couple of treatments of FRAXIS Duo, a combination of CO2 and micro-needling with RF. The treatments help to treat scarring, reduce pore size, among other benefits. Please meet with an experienced, licensed practitioner who can speak with you about your options. We wish you the best!

Answer: Improving Acne Scars with lasers, fillers, subcision and microneedling/prp--takes a series of treatments CO2 is the best laser for scars, but Erbium is a great alternative. It may take a series of treatments to see improvements and to maintain. Keep in mind that a tailored combination approach will give you the most improvement with acne scars. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
