Laser treatments are generally more effective for treating active acne and acne scars than plastic surgery, although both can play a role in a comprehensive treatment plan. Laser treatments can address active acne by reducing inflammation and bacteria, and they can also improve the appearance of acne scars by stimulating collagen production. Plastic surgery, on the other hand, is more commonly used to improve the appearance of acne scars, particularly severe ones, through procedures like excision or subcision.
