I have acne scarring and about a month age I had Fractional CO2 Laser therapy to rid myself of these scars. When will the residual redness and dents heal and will I be left with no apparent scars? I am a 30 year old woman living and working in Manhattan, New York.

Answer:

When Fractional CO2 provides the energy pulse to your scarred areas it stimulates the growth of new collage.  With this growth of new collagen your skin is essentially rejuvenating and renewing itself.  As your skin renews itself the conditions you describe will gradually resolve over the course of a few months.  Expecting to see results after only a month is too short a period of time.  You, of course, should speak with your doctor providing the treatment.
