    Default How do you get rid of deep scars on your face?

    I tried microdermabrasion and it did not do much. Has anyone
    else tried to get rid moderate to severe acne scars?
    I am scared of those peel things.
    Mine is mild to moderate and I have a few indentations that are really annoying.
    Any personal input is appreciated.

    You should speak to a dermatologist and they'll tell you your best course of action. This is not something that can be corrected at home. And don't be scared of peels! They last a couple minutes and you're red for a day at the longest. The TCA peels are what you should be scared of, those are the ones that make your face peel for 5 days. The regular chemical peels are nothing!

    ^^Yeah, I'd be scared to have one of those done too! But a regular chemical peel is no biggie.

    I've done the TCA peels on the scars at my temples but they dont work, so don't bother. This topic has come up a few times if you want to try a search.

    I went to talk to a very good dermatologist who recommended
    a very good laser treatment called FRAXEL.
    Very good and of course very expensive 1,200 for one treatment.
    I was told since my scars,etc are minimal I would only need one to four
    treatments.
    I saw the pictures and the results are amazing.
