Hi. Greetings. Laser resurfacing should reduce the pits to some extent. Other possible options are punch excision or dermal grafting of the scar. Kindly discuss these with your dermatologist. He would be the best judge to decide on a treatment since he has seen and examined you personally. Hope this helps. Warm regards. Dr Govind Suresh Mittal.
