What laser (& other treatments) do you recommend for acne scarring & pigmentation? (Photo)

June 10, 2022
Asked By:taylormr in Saskatchewan, Canada

I am looking to get lasers to hopefully eliminate the scars that are left behind from my acne. It seems that I also have broken blood vessels on my face as a result of the inflammation, but I am unsure if this is what is causing my face to be red and splotchy. I don't think my scars are as severe as others but they are definitely noticeable and I want the right lasers to remove them and also want to know how many possible treatments I would require. Do I need a combination of lasers also?
