Which is better for acne scar treatment - derma roller / laser?

Both: Both are great treatments in the right hands. Only go to a dermatologist with a lot of experience, not just any laser or salon that does these treatments. It can be horrific if performed in the wrong hands.

Depends: All acne scars are different. Seek the advice of an experienced acne scar physician to help treat acne scars with the therapy which is best for you.
