I had acne for around 8-9 years. The acne has subsided now but my face and back are left with scars. There are plenty of treatments available. Which treatment should I go for?

Many treatment options are available for Acne scars and pigmentation which the pimples leave behind after healing. Some creams are available but they are not very effective. Chemical peels can help you reduce the scars and pigmentation but the best treatment is carbon dioxide laser. Carbon dioxide laser resurfascing can improve the scars by about 60 to 80 percent in about 6 sittings. You can me or visit a Dermatologist which has the facility.
