I am curious about the recommended number of treatment sessions for the pitted marks and acne scars left on my cheeks.

Hello. I am a man in my late 30s working at a company.
I had a lot of breakouts on my chin and cheeks in my 20s, and the pitted marks from back then are still there. Lately, I'm more bothered by these marks than by new breakouts. When I shave in the morning and look under the bathroom light, my cheeks look bumpy.
Perhaps because my pores look enlarged as well, it is noticeable even on video conference screens. So, I am thinking of getting a consultation for acne scar treatment this winter.
First, I am curious about the recommended number of sessions for acne scar treatment. I don't think it will be finished in a single session, so I would like to know how many sessions are typically required and how often they are spaced.
I am also curious how long the redness or scab lasts after receiving it. Since I have to go to work on weekdays, I am wondering if it will be okay to go to work on Monday if I get it on Friday evening.
Since these are old marks, I plan to ask during the consultation how much they can fade with acne scar treatment. It would also be helpful to let me know the approximate treatment time so I can schedule an appointment. I will take your reply into consideration.
