Hi, I'm Asian. I have acne scar on my cheeks. So far I had 3 treatment of Ematrix starting from level A to B. My last treatment was setting at B 44. I wanted to do at level C but my aesthetician told me that she could do only level B for me because Level C isn't recommened for Asian skin, is it true?
