Should I do CO2 laser or RF microneedling? (Photo)

January 9, 2020
Asked By:tjmania in Orange County, CA

I have had these scars for a couple years now. Since this picture was taken, I've done a couple of regular microneedling sessions, but the dermatologist suggested laser or microneedling with radiofrequency (infini). I don't mind the downtime, I just really want to do whatever will give me the best results. I am scared of the risk that comes with co2 lasers though, but from what I've seen online, the results are appealing. Also, are some co2 laser machines better than others? Thank you!!
