Q: Does Fraxel give good results for removing scar? asked by Pom_bom Thailand

Hi Pom,

Fraxel restore and repair work well in the treatment of scars. Unfortunately, Asian skin is prone to Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation or darkening of your skin. Usually the hyperpigmentation fades with time, but you must be willing to put up with it until it fades.

Good luck and be well.
