Asked By:saffron2000 in Pinehouse, Saskatchewan, Canada
My acne scars have improved after a couple of sessions of laser but now I am concerned with the redness inside the scars that have been lingering for months, it draws more attention to my now shallower scars in different lightings. I just want my skin tone to be even again. Is it possible? What procedures could i look into (laser genesis?). Does this improve on its own? Sometimes it looks brown/purple to me but my esthetician said its redness and not hyperpigmentation.
