Hi ,
Don’t go for any laser procedures if you have active acne .
If all acne has healed then we can plan for Chemical peeling and other advance treatments

I can help — but first I need to know exactly what skin problem you are trying to treat with laser (since different lasers target different conditions).
You mentioned you’ve tried “almost all types of creams,” and now want laser — but laser choice depends on the specific issue.
Please tell me which condition you’re referring to:
1. Scars (acne scars, surgical scars)
2. Stretch marks
3. Pigmentation / dark spots
4. Hair removal
5. Vitiligo / hypopigmentation
6. Rashes or dermatitis
7. Warts / viral lesions
8. Psoriasis
9. Eczema
10. Something else (please describe)
Next Steps
Once you clarify the exact condition, I will tell you:

Laser treatment can help — but the best laser depends entirely on what problem you’re treating (acne scars, pigmentation, hair growth, stretch marks, melasma, etc.). There is no single “best laser” for everything, and jumping straight to laser without proper diagnosis often leads to wasted money or rebound pigmentation.
Next Steps
Common options (just for awareness):
• Q-switched Nd:YAG → pigmentation / melasma
• Fractional CO₂ / Er:YAG → acne scars / texture
• Diode / Alexandrite → hair reduction
You should only proceed after a dermatologist examines your skin and confirms the diagnosis.

If you’ve tried all OTC (over-the-counter) creams and haven’t seen improvement, it usually means you need a stronger, more targeted treatment plan rather than just a basic cream.you need to connect me on practo for further management and evaluation.

Hello ,
For any cream to work you will have to be consistent for atleast 6-8 weeks
If you want quicker results , chemical peels and lasers can help clear up skin faster
Do share pictures for appropriate treatment
