From the research I've done lately, laser seems to be the emerging gold standard. Have you discussed laser with your doc?

Yeah, some docs pushed me forfractional laser but that was before pandemic. Ill have to go see other docs.

Which laser would be best for my skin?

Thank you.

Hello, I suggest not to go for laser first. Laser can only help with really superficial scars or texture issue.

I'd suggest to go first resurface your skin. What personally worked for me was Subcision, MNRF with PRP and TCA peels for texture. Laser didn't do anything for me.

Thank you for your suggestions. What treatment do you recommend I do first?

Subcision for sure, others treatments won't be as effective if you do not cut the fibrous bands that are holding down your scars. Once you've healed with subcision I really think you should do alternate treatments.

What I'd suggest is subcision once first, then MNRF with PRP, 1 month gap, then TCA peel, 1 month gap and repeat.

If your doctor straight up jumps into laser without any manual work, please do not listen to him imo. For me, personally fractional laser didn't work at all.
