Numbness After Fraxel repair is Not the Norm
Hi Lisa,
It is unusual to have facial numbness one week after Fraxel reapir. You should contact your treating physician.
Occaisionally there is prolonged numbness from one of the nerve blocks, but this effect does not affect the entire treated area. Most likely your numbness should go away, please keep us informed.
Be well.
Dr. P
