Acne scars impact on the quality of life and the willingness to pay for treatments among adults in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: A cross-sectional study
The most recognized acne scar treatment modalities were laser resurfacing and chemical peels. Participants were willing to pay for reasons such as psychological impact, income levels, and awareness of treatment modalities. The findings could influence dermatologists to start awareness campaigns to debunk misconceptions about acne scar treatment modalities and their efficacy in improving QoL.
