    Indentations and depressions left over by acne
    I have few indentations and depressions left over by acne. Is there any way to heal and even the surface.

    Dermabrasion by a plastic surgeon or laser trreatment are the only two ways to eliminate that problem.

    Tickie, thank you for answering. Are those painful and what exactly is done in these things?

    Dernabrasion isn't painful but lengthy as the doctor will only take off so much derma at a time. Your face will be tender for a while but given moisturizers to protect.

    Laser isn't painful either. May be a tad quicker then dermbrasion.

    Laser surgery is by consultation and as far as I know don't charge for this.

    Should I post pictuers of my scars and then can you give me advice which one is best suited?

    Thank you very much!

    I can't diagnose your condition, the best way to find out which one is best suited, is visit each in turn and determine yourself.
