Acne Scars - Laser Treatment Or Any Better Option Posted: 08-20-04 19:00pm
I have been seeing so many ads about acne
laser treatment where they say they can
remove acne scars, does it really work.
Is there any better way to get the acne
scars go away than laser treatment. Can
anyone share ur experiences.
Thanks.

I don't have any personal experience, but
my understanding is that the laser
treatment works real well, especially for
acne scars. Some big scars or deep scars
may not go away completely, but they fade
nicely. Laser is the best thing if you
want the greatest results. There are,
however, facial chemical peels that are
much cheaper and can lighten the scars as
well.

What are the chemical peals that get rid
of scars? Can you detail on what are they
and how one should use.
Thanks a lot.

There are multiple, i'm not sure of them
all.. I would say your best bet is to
find either a dermatologist or a skin
clinic.. Sometimes places that do plastic
surgery do them as well. Find a place
and get a consultation (some might do one
for free). They should be able to tell
you the different ones and which one would
work best for you since it might vary on
what type skin you have and how bad the
scars are as to which would work best.
Some web sites claim to sell them.. But I
would not do one at home because they can
burn your skin real bad if not done
properly.
