How can I get rid of these shallow boxcar scars? (Photo)

Asked By:realself100 in Victoria, BC

I’ve done 6 sessions of microneedling after I finished accutane. However, I’m wondering whether I should try a different treatment for my scars or if I should just continue with the microneedling. I’ve certainly seen improvement although it’s not as dramatic as I’d like it to be. What type of lasers would be effective in improving my scars? I’m a little reluctant on ablative laser as I’ve heard it isn't suitable for darker skin. Do you think non-ablative lasers would be helpful?
