Acne Scars
Hello Doctor! I have acne scars and want to get rid of this permanently. I had peels done by a dermat already but the scars are still there. I heard laser can solve this but not entirely sure since the after effects may be huge/damaging (which is what I heard) I don't want my skin color to darken after any of the treatments. I think laser will darken the skin so keeping these pointts into consideration, please offer me some advice. I want to know my options because I'm ready to get this treated once and for all. Please suggest me a treatment and why do you think it suits me and the after effects of it. I'm from Hyderabad for further information.
Thanks to all the wonderful doctors who can help me with their advice.

Chemical peels may not work for acne scars but the simplest way to get rid of acne scars reasonably is the Dermaroller treatment .
you may require 3 to 5 sessions each session placed three weeks apart.
this method of treatment is more safer than laser
