Is CO2 fully ablative laser the right treatment for my acne scarring or are there better alternatives?

Asked By:MaudeBean

Dear Experts, I’m scheduled to have CO2 fully ablative laser treatment on the NHS. I have been told that this will require 3 weeks off work to recover, during which time I will not be allowed to leave the house so as to avoid sun exposure. My question is - judging from the included photos of - is this the best treatment for me. The recovery time is daunting to me, and I have come across many anecdotal regrets or unsuccessful treatments. Would anyone recommend an alternative?
