Hello, Acne scars are a result of acne itself so from preventing newer formation of scars we must stop formation of acne first for which you need to take isotretinoin caps for atleast 3 months continuously.
Coming to the scarring you can go for either dermarollers or fractional co2 lasers treatment depends on what type of scars you have. take care
