Waste of Money; Scarred Me, Results Were Horrid

I have moderate acne scars on both of my cheeks. I've been trying to soften the appearance since 2001. I've also spent thousands of dollars doing non-ablative treatments. Anyways, back in 2003, the rave about Smoothbeam seemed promising. A lot of people gave positive feedback on the laser, so I decided to give it a try. Well, after spending around $600.00 for spot treatments, the laser burnt my skin and left me new scars. It also did nothing for the old acne scars. I am highly disappointed with the Smoothbeam laser, and even moreso with the clinic who performed the procedure. I feel like I basically gave away money so I could get new scars. What a trade-off, eh? *sigh*
