You have a combination of rolling scars and boxcar acne scars. From your photo, you do seem to have ice-pick acne scars as well.
I tailor my treatments according to the type of scars that my patients have.
For your Rolling/ Atrophic Scars, the treatments of choice are:
- Fractional CO2,
- Micro-needling Radiofrequency (Infini RF),
- Fractional PicoLaser
For your Boxcar Scars, I suggest:
- Subcision with fillers,
- Fractional CO2
For ice-pick acne scars, I suggest:
- TCA Cross
The dark brown spots that you see are Post-inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH). These tend to fade over time. However, if you would like to speed up the removal of post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation, you can consider a Picosecond Nd-YAG Laser.
Several sessions of each treatment are required for optimal scar improvement results. I usually combine several types of treatments in 1 treatment session to target each scar specifically.
Treatment intervals are usually 1 month apart.

Hope that this helps!
Warmest regards,
Dr Justin Boey
