Which laser treatment would help me achieve “glass skin” and clear up my skin issues? (photos)

Question

My skin has a constant dullness to it. It is always dry no matter how much water I drink and skincare I use. Cheap or expensive skincare, nothing helps. I’ve tried slugging at night and it seems to only congested my skin. I have scarring on my cheeks and forehead both. I’ve had several sessions of Moxie, several micro needling, and several diamondglow facials. All of this has helped, but my skin is not what I wish it to be. I have a lot of discoloration and very uneven texture.

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser.  Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.
