Laser Treatment for Acne Scars: What to Expect

Laser therapy has become a popular treatment for acne scars, especially for those unresponsive to creams and peels. It works by removing the outer layer of skin or stimulating collagen production.

Fractional CO2 and erbium lasers are commonly used. Patients may need multiple sessions spaced weeks apart, with minor redness and peeling afterward.

Results vary by scar type and skin tone. Always consult a dermatologist to assess suitability and expected outcomes.

FAQs:

Q: Is laser scar removal permanent?

Laser treatment offers real results—but only with realistic expectations and proper care.
