Deeper Laser Treatments for Acne Scars?

keving
Hello Doctors, I am a 25-year-old Indian guy with fair skin. I recently had Profractional Laser treatment (8%, 175 micron) 2 weeks back, and Microlaser Peel (15 micron) 2 days back for my deep acne scars. I am trying to force my esthetician to go deeper for my subsequent treatments, and also give me some bleaching cream to be on the safe side. However, she doesn't seem to buy this, and wants to go very shallow and without using any bleaching cream. Do you think it's a good idea?
