Good evening,
Acne must be treated before acne scars are treated to prevent formation of new scars.
You will need to be examined to start a proper treatment which is made up of antibiotics to reduce the infection.
Once acne stops occurring various acne scar treatments can be started such as derma pen, subcision or fraction CO2 laser to remove upto 80% appearance of scars.
Please do not hesitate to contact me for further queries.
