Fraxel side effects - I got dark spots on my skin after treatment. How long will it take for these spots to go away?
I had my fraxel two week ago. First I have red spot on my face now it turned darkning spot. Do I need to use bleaching cream to get rid off it or what should I do. :( Make up couldn't cover it. :( The last fraxel was a little bit more aggresive than the previous. Because I wanted more aggresive to get better result.
How long will it take for these spots to go away?
