That is encouraging to hear! Mine isn't too bad right now. It was starting to get out of hand before I discovered microdermabrasion. (I wish I had known about it earlier because I would not have enlarged pores or any scarring.) I really wanted to do the laser at one point but it never made sense to spend $2500 and then 6 months later need it again. The microdermabrasion helped with the scarring and pores along with keep the acne under control, so it was a good temporary fix. Anyhow if I can get it to go away completely I am going to get the laser done finally!
