I'm curious which of the laser skin resurfacing treatments I should try. I have mild acne scarring and I would like to see improvements with my pore size, skin elasticity and especially help with reducing my under eye circles. What are my options and general prices?

Answer: Improving Acne Scars with lasers (Co2, Erbium), fillers, subcision and microneedling/prp--takes a series of treatments Co2 is best for acne scarring, but Erbium is a great alternative. However, a combination approach will give the most improvement to acne scars. These types of scars need a combination of lasers, microneedling/prp, subcision and fillers. It may take a series of treatments and may need some treatments to maintain. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Best laser Laser skin resurfacing has been around for decades and can do a wonderful job of rejuvenating skin. The problem is the risks and the downtime with the older technology. The other problem is a lack of impressive results with many of the newer "no downtime" technologies. I personally love the Halo laser by Sciton. We get great results with minimal risk and downtime. Combining it with broad band light (BBL) is even better. See someone with extensive experience.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Rejuvenation SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers
