What can I use to erase my acne scar?
I've had an acne scar for 15 years. What medication can I use to remove/erase the scar on my face? Because it's embarrassing to me personally.

In order to give you proper guidance in the treatment of scars, a physician would need to personally evaluate your condition. There are many different approaches and treatments, but all are very dependent upon an in person evaluation by a Board Certified Dermatologist in your area. Treatments may include chemical peels, laser resurfacing, non-ablative resurfacing, dermal fillers, punch excision, subcision to name a few.
Good Luck!
