I have stubborn acne marks that haven’t faded even after a year. How do I know whether I need chemical peels, laser sessions, or microneedling? Is there a way to treat pigmentation and texture issues together?

Your dermatologist first checks whether the marks are only pigment-based or if they include textural scars. Pigment responds to peels or laser toning, while texture needs microneedling or fractionated lasers.

In many cases, a combination approach is used so that both pigmentation and texture improve together. This ensures the skin looks smoother and more even over time.
