I'm curious about the effectiveness of acne scar treatment, the recommended number of sessions, and the cost.

Hello. I've had severe acne since high school, and now that it has finally subsided, I'm left with bumpy marks on my cheeks and chin. It makes me upset every time I look in the mirror these days. They don't cover well even with makeup, so I plan to look into treatments properly this winter. I've heard there are more types of acne scar treatments than I thought, so I'm not sure where to start. I'm curious if lasers like Fraxel are the only options, or if there are other methods as well. I'm also curious to know how effective those who have received acne scar treatment felt. Rather than hoping for them to disappear completely, I think I would be satisfied if they just became less visible when I wear makeup. Is that level of improvement reasonable? I would also like to know how many sessions are typically recommended for acne scar treatment and what the cost should be. I've heard that it doesn't finish in one go but requires multiple sessions; is that correct? Since I work, I have to go to work the day after the procedure, so I'm also concerned about how long the recovery period will be. If anyone knows whether redness tends to linger after acne scar treatment and if it is okay to receive treatment in the winter, please let me know. Thank you for reading!
