How bad are these scars? I would say there is a good amount of icepick scars and some bigger rolling scars. I'm going to post another picture in a little while of my skin in worse lighting, but how bad does it seem from these photos? 

Should I do laser or something else?

Hi, you took the photos way too close. At this distance, they look very obvious but I bet when people view you from a normal distance, they look just fine. Really.

I appreciate your comment but I do think my scars are very noticeable even at a normal distance. I took some more photos with angled lighting from further away. 

I would say this is the worst lightning for my scars (maybe in sunlight they are worse though). 4.jpg.2fb7274393d4c4ba19f492ac9edb9577.j5.thumb.jpg.5eb43ca2153dfafb73de7467c5f1

Your options are limited.

Fractional Co2 and or Dermastamping. See [hyperlink removed] for Dermastamping because most of the advice posted here is awfully inaccurate.

Please also steer away from negative reviews about Fractional Co2, they're quite skewed. You're more likely to leave a negative review of something than a positive one. Plus the majority of people who seek out these procedures have a degree of body dysmorphic disorder. Read: They're fucking mental and examine their skin under magnifying glasses in harsh light as a fucking hobby.

Good luck!

He was asking for a an opinion 'how bad are these scars?' and I gave one. What's it got to do with you if I genuinely felt that his scars aren't too bad at all? [removed]

Hi Nope, love ur brutal honesty. Mutual regards about lasers. Also, why did u tell OP that his options are limited? Not to high jack thread, but mine bear resemblance, albeit more shallow. And OP, id look into any fractional laser, co2 or erbium..but so u know, its gonna take at least 5 Imho.. and maybe subcision? Idk, im just researching the subcision route before i hit the laser route again.

Thank you all for your opinions. I would say that I have one or 2 pretty deep rolling scars but the majority of them to me seem to be medium in depth.

I hope these photos conveyed their severity, but I will post some higher quality photos in a little while in different lightings and angles.

Also, Nope.avi why do you say my options are limited? Thanks again everyone!
