Deal with it: Unfortunately , some will have acne prone skin well into their 40's and beyond. A laser treatment can help diminish the scarring of past disease, but it does not change your genetics. If you are destined to have acne at this age it will happen. Get with your doc and follow a maintenance plan for limiting your acne.
