Short YouTube clip by Shereene Idriss offering skincare advice on treating scars: improvement is a marathon, not a one-off fix; no single treatment solves everything; recommends a multi-pronged approach and warns against overaggressive CO2 laser resurfacing used solely to even skin texture.

All right. So when you are thinking about treating scars, the first piece of advice I have for you is that it's a marathon and not a race. Do not expect a one hit wonder with any treatment. There is no single treatment that does it all. And quite frankly, I'm sick of this story of let's do a CO2 laser and burn your face off in order to even out your texture because it's a multi pronged approach.
