Would Fraxel CO2 laser be a helpful treatment for my acne dark spots/PIH on Type III-IV skin? (Photos)

Asked By:Independent11835 in Washington DC, DC

I’ve been struggling with dark spots since a preteen, and I have no idea what my skin looks like without all these dark spots on my face. I've tried VI chemical peels, BHA/AHA at home lighter chemical peels (Dr. Dennis Gross and Bliss Products) with only smoother skin, but not doing much for the scarring. I was also prescribed Azelaic Acid but it does more for the texture than my hyperpigmentation. At this point, I want to explore laser treatments, so if not Fraxel, then what would work?
