you look like a good canidate for Deep FX/ Fraxel RePair and Mixto Fractional CO2 lasers.
Off course you will need multiple treatments. I think after 3 laser treatments you will be satisified with your results.
the main obsticle surrounding lasers can be the absurb cost. I think thats what puts out alot of people on these forums. Also there is no "shortcuts" in treating acne scars. Topicals dont work period.

You have boxcar and ice pick scars.

LZOMG is suggesting multiple ablative fractional co2 laser treatments. If you do multiple treatments, you will likely see a nice improvement, but there are no guarantees and treatment is costly.

I've never done subcision or excision but I believe a combined approach produces nice results, as well.

You should consult with a few doctors experienced with treating acne scars to get an idea on how to proceed.
