How to lighten acne induced pores or scars at home, I had acne problem in past and now pores and scars are left. One doctor recommended laser surgery, but I think it is for serious scars. I don't have such serious scars. Any home skin peeling remedy??

Hello
Acne scars can be best treated with laser resurfacing.
Chemical peeling, microneedling and fine thread lift are other options but it depends on type of scars
Scars gels/ointment won't help much
Another thing is to differentiate whether its an acne scar or pigmentation, treatment protocol changes accordingly
