Thank you for the photos, these spots can be improved with a combination of Cosmelan, lasers, PicoSure, Aerolase, microneedling/prp, skin lightening, peels, and skin care. Sun protection is essential. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your photo. You can treat acne scars by doing a series of treatments via LightPodNeo Aerolase laser or PicoSure laser. The PicoSure laser is FDA-approved and is gentle on your skin, with minimal discomfort or downtime after treatments. PicoSure works by sending ultra-short pulses of laser energy into the outer and inner skin layers. The Aerolase laser aims laser technology into both the outer and inner layers of your skin. For more information, I recommend getting a in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

Thank you for your question! The Picosure is working on pigemented lesions and freckles very well, with pigmented lesions resolving in 100% of those treated in the studies done with just two treatments.  Melasma may respond, but has not been studied yet.  A test spot of the area will let you know if it would be effective. Best of luck!
