I've almost set my mind on a series of (3) Vi Peels, I've done all the research so far, but with the latest chemical peel, comes the greatest expenses.
My basic inquiry is this: Is the Jessner peel or IPL photofacial good enough on light-slightly moderate (mostly old actually) rolling acne scars? How good is the Jessner peel or IPL photofacial on scars/red marks? I'm totally willing to shell out the $900 for (3) Vi peels. I've dealt with acne for so long, and then scaring, I just want to be done with it and have nice skin. I need to know however if these two procedures could do what I want - putting me on a path towards perfect skin, while being budget conscientious.
So, recap: My acne is gone, I'm done peels for scarring, but want to make sure i'm getting a peel that is best designed for rolling scars and light red marks. All I see is x peel say it's for acne scars as well, but what is the best one for scarring?
Can I be looking towards peels + good skin care for a clear face? Or should I save my $700-900 for lasers that offers a more lasting solution? What is everyone's experience with this? I would prefer a chemical peel, as it's safer, but i want lasting results (years).
For redmarks and possible collagen reintroduction for atrophic scars I suggest V beam Perfecta instead of IPL. Check this out: https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/jsswc/4/3/4_170/_pdf & https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/jsswc/4/3/4_170/_pdf.
