Does the effectiveness of acne scar treatments depend on skin type or color?

Individuals with darker skin tones require gentler, pigment-safe treatment options like MNRF or chemical peels. On the other hand, fairer-skinned people may tolerate more aggressive lasers. Dermatologists tailor the acne scar treatment to your skin tone to maximise results and minimise side effects like hyperpigmentation.
