Question : Hello, I have a question for a dematologist.
What is the best way to get rid of years of acne scars. My scars are not severe, however, they are mildly noticeable. I am planning to see a dermatologist early next year, but I would like to know possible treatments already so that I am prepared. Also, what is the average price for my unique treatment.

Thanks for your help!

Mild scars can be treated with the use of peeling creams.
You can use RETINOL based creams.
If possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
