I am interested in getting laser treatments done for scars. There is one doctor I am leaning towards, he is a Board Certified Dermatologist but NOT a Certified Plastic Surgeon, do you think that it matters? Do you think there are scar treatments out there that you would want a plastic surgeon for as opposed to just a dermatologist?

It does not matter when it comes to laser cosmetic treatments. A dermatologist who is properly trained in using the laser system he works with, will perform it just as safely. Some dermatologists probably see more patients doing acne related treatments than a plastic surgeon who is busy doing face lifts. :)
