A member asked:
I've got marks different than acne scars, but some are just as deep.. could skin resurfacing help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Use of mechanical dermabrasion, resurfacing lasers, come chemical peels offer help in masking small scars. Depending on cause, depth, and shape of scars, treatment will vary. 'ice pick' type scars are difficult to effectively treat, crater-type are easier. Seek a good dermatologist who treats scars may be best.
