Im a 33 year old black female w/dark skin. I had a TT & BA in 2014 not necessarily concerned w/the scars from the BA (would still like to lighten them) but I wanted to see if theres a procedure or laser I should look into to minimize the appearance (specifically flatten and lighten significantly). i'm open to any suggestions. Ive tried microneedling wPRP and it helped but I would like to try something else.
