Nicky111
I would like to have my scar revised. I want laser resurfacing for making it less noticable. But which laser treatment would be suitable? as there is laser, pixel, co2 and pulse dye laser. The scar skin is shiny and thin. I know that it will not be removed completely but I want it to become less noticeable. Which laser would be more effective at doing a good job? Thank you.
