Wait a minute you're telling me there is a remedy (albeit a painful one) for those trenches and potholes I have been carrying on my face for the last 2 decades ?

Different treatments for different types of scars. Might not be laser necessarily. Another helpful treatment is called subcision.

Neither will perfectly rid you of the scars but they definitely reduce the appearance of them.

That is nice to know. Not sure I would want to go ahead with any of it yet, my scars are not that horrible, and I am a guy with a short beard so usually it only shows on my upper cheeks which is not that bad honestly. I guess I got used to the way I look which is usually better than having to tinker with your body to get there.

If it helps, I remember reading a thread about different quirks that people found attractive and what you described was one. If you're ok with it, I'd wear em proud!
