I'm really concerned about my very deep acne scars and was wondering how effective laser treatment might be. Are there any side effects to worry about with this treatment? How many sessions do you think it usually takes to see results for acne scars? Also, if you have any idea, how much would one session typically cost in Bangalore? Are there any specialists you would recommend for laser treatment?

Laser treatment for acne scars can be very effective, especially for deep scars. It works by stimulating collagen production to help improve the appearance of scars. Common side effects may include redness, swelling, or temporary changes in skin pigmentation. The number of sittings required for acne scar treatment can vary depending on the severity of the scars, but typically multiple sessions are needed for optimal results. In Bangalore, the cost of one sitting for laser treatment of acne scars can range from Rs. 3000 to Rs. 8000, depending on the type of laser used and the clinic. It is recommended to consult with a dermatologist or a specialist in laser treatments for acne scars to determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs.

I've been dealing with some psychological issues recently and ended up with several blade cuts on my leg. Things are better now, but the cuts left a lot of marks. The scars aren't too deep since the blades only grazed the outer layer, but multiple cuts caused quite a noticeable scar. I'm looking for some advice on which ointment might help peel off dead skin and promote fresh skin growth. My skin's become extremely dry around those marks too. Could you suggest something that might help me with this issue?
