Hi, I have a question about Fraxel Restore. I received dermabrasion about two years ago on a few acne scars on my chin. Unfortunately, the scars looked much worse after the dermabrasion. My doctor is recommending Fraxel Restore. My main concern is the possibilty of worsening the scars, or creating a demarcation line (the doctor will only do the chin area). What is the risk involved? And, what kind of benefit do you think I will see in this situation? Thank you!
Hi Girl on Journey,
Fraxel re:store is likely the best available technology to attempt to correct and improve your scars. There is no guarantee that your scars will be completely gone, but there is a great chance of improvement. The risk of hypo- or hyper-pigmentation with Fraxel re:store is extremely low.
Good luck and happy holidays.
Dr. P
