Hi, I am thinking about getting MicroLaserPeel treatment. I have mild acne scarring on my both cheeks...combination of rolling, box, icepick scars. My scars looks like the photo. Do you think the treatment works for these type of scars? Or should I get different types of laser treatment? Thank you.
Answer: Acne Scar treatment options
Microlaser peel will improve the texture and tone slightly. I recommend doing profractional laser therapy instead. This allows the laser to deeply exfoliate the skin with minimal downtime. Typically, 3-6 treatments are needed for optimal results. We have seen amazing results with profractional laser therapy for acne scars.

Answer: Acne Scarring -- Needs Combination of Subcision; Fillers Like Bellafill; Lasers Like Fraxel/Erbium/CO2; TCA Cross; Intensif RF Acne scars need a combination approach for long-term improvement. Everyone has a unique pattern of acne scarring, and most people have various types of scars, so we create a tailored treatment plan for each patient. We often use:- Injectable fillers like Bellafill and Sculptra (with or without subcision) for atrophic, indented scars. - Subcision for depressed, tethered scars. - Vascular lasers like Yellow laser, Aerolase, excel V, or IPL for redness or thick acne scars. - Lasers such as Fraxel, Erbium, CO2 or fractional radiofrequency (Venus Viva, Skinfinity, Intensif microneedling RF) for textural issues and superficial scarring. - TCA CROSS and punch excision for deep ice pick scars and narrow box car scars. All lasers are combined with microneedling/PRP to improve the results and accelerate your healing time. Keep in mind that a personalized combination treatment by an expert physician will give you the improvement you're looking for. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Acne scars Usually a microlaser peel means a very superficial debth treatment: about 50 microns. This is not deep enough to make any real improvement. I suggest a combination of Bellafill, microneedling at 2.0mm with growth factor based skin care to promote collagen remodeling.

Answer: MicroLaserPeel for Acne Scars
The MicroLaserPeel or “weekend” skin peel addresses conditions associated with sun damage and aging. As compared with microdermabrasion or light chemical peels, a MicroLaserPeel is a deeper treatment that precisely removes the outermost layers of skin, and treats wrinkles, scars, acne scars, keratoses, and irregular pigmentation. Patients experience smoother, healthier, more vibrant skin, with a significant immediate change in skin texture and tightness. A MicroLaserPeel is the perfect step between microdermabrasion and more aggressive full laser resurfacing. However, I would suggest meeting with a board-certified doctor for a thorough consultation to discuss the various options available, as there are many. Best of luck!

Answer: Treatment of scars A laser peel may not be an effective solution for you. Laser peel can only look after superficial uneven skin due to sun damage. This helps you to get a good refreshing skin. However, in your case , I would recommend a Deep Fractional treatment By Fotona SpDynamis. This is a very advanced and effective treatment. The laser in this treatment can go deeper in the skin and creates micro injury to stimulate your own tissue to start healing. One session of this treatment can start the process of healing which lasts for about 6 months. Typically a person needs 3-5 treatments 4 weeks apart. Thus the whole healing process can last for about a year.
