A member asked:
How hard is laser surgery for acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Difficult: Many of the new lasers for acne are not painful or inconvenient. They have been developed to either reduce the bacterial colony counts, oil gland size, or oil excretion. Clinical trials show improvement with reduction of acne lesional size and number; however, complete clearance is rare.
