Is Micro needling good for very small blackheads and whiteheads. I have very fine skin with small pores; will the pinpoints leave minute scars? I had CO2 fractional laser 5 weeks ago, still left with needlepoint holes. I realize I have to wait 3-6 months to see more collagen formation. I am afraid to have micro needling done to have a similar result of pinpoint scarring. Also I am still very red after 5 weeks.
