Question:
Is Erbium laser resurfacing a good treatment for acne scars?
Answer:
As with most treatments, the tool is not as important as how you use it. Acne scars can be treated with Fraxel re:store which is an Erbium glass laser, with a traditional Erbium laser, with CO2 laser, with dermabrasion or with other resurfacing modalities. Erbium laser, whether in the form of Fraxel or another device, is a reasonable alternative for treating acne scars. A discussion should occur between the patient and surgeon to determine which procedure is best suited.
