I’ve unfortunately accumulated a number of acne scars and my dermatologist tells me laser surgery isn’t an option until the rest of my acne is gone completely – which probably won’t be for another couple of years, at least. Not only that, but I’m not even sure I will be able to afford laser surgery. I’m afraid my scars are leading to actual emotional scarring on top of the already dealt physical damage. So, I wonder, is there any way that I can rid myself of my acne scars without laser surgery?
Though if I undergo laser therapy in the near future to treat my current acne as well as eliminate my acne scars, I still run the risk of developing new acne later on, right?
no but its not "surgery."
Plus, laser therapy is used to TREAT acne also, so I don’t know why your Dr. told you that. Perhaps he/she was misinformed.
