Acne scar assessment · fractional laser and microneedling · pigment risk in darker skin
Dr. Ke He is Deputy Director of the Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Medical Center at Chongqing West District Hospital and head of its skin and laser aesthetic service — and she is the lead physician of this site. A core specialist formerly at the Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Xinqiao Hospital, affiliated with Army Medical University, she has worked on the clinical front line in skin laser and injectable aesthetics for more than 20 years, serving over ten thousand patients.
On this subject Dr. He works in a fixed order. She records what kind of scarring is present before anything is offered — depressed, tethered, broad with redness, or a mix — and whether it is still changing. She examines the scars at rest and again with the skin moved, because a tethered scar behaves differently under tension, and she checks skin tone, sun exposure and how many days of visible healing the patient can carry. Then she says which option matches, if either. She declines to treat while acne is active, after isotretinoin, or where scarring is keloidal.

Neither is the first step
It is often assumed that needling is the gentle beginning and laser the stronger answer held in reserve. The two reach different scars, so the order does not work that way. A tethered scar may be treated with needling while a textured one is treated with laser, and a mixed pattern may need both. Neither is a stage of the other.
