Will Fraxel Re:pair Clear Acne on Asian Skin?
Hi, I'm an asian male, between a 3 to a 4 on the Fitzpatrick scale. I have acne scarring as a result of the accutane I went on a couple of years ago. I have had seven fraxel re:store treatments in attempts to heal my scarring, but the results have been minimal. I have a few depressed boxcar scars and some rolling scars mainly on my cheeks, but I don't think I have any icepicks.
I am heading in for my 8th re:store treatment in a week or two. My doctor has offered the re:pair to me, but since he has never actually tried the re:pair laser before, I am a bit concerned. To me, hope seems to be dwindling as the days go by. I need to know if I should give the re:pair a shot or try any other options, whether it be temporary or permanent.
Since I have asian skin, the hyperpigmentation concern is a big one for me. Will fraxel re:pair work for me?
Keep hyperpigmentation in mind with Fraxel for Asian skin
No, it won't. You have learned the hard way that acne scarring isn't usually helped by lasers
