How to Correct Fraxel Damage?

I have suffered damage from the fraxel laser. This has manifested itself in the form of fat loss in the forehead and the temples. The results are random indention/depressions, fine lines and track marks. How can this be fixed? Fillers? Fat transfers? Stem Cells? PRP? Please help as this is really distressing me.
