Desperate for help. Will Fraxel Dual help my scars? (photos)

February 26, 2015
Asked By:albusch in Portland, Oregon

2 months ago, I stupidly burned myself with an at-home Fraxel laser. When I saw some crusting the next day, I aggressively started rubbing it, which peeled off even more unburned, healthy skin, leaving the whole patch raw, red, and indented in the exact shape of the area where I stopped peeling the skin. The skin has not grown back in much. Would Fraxel Dual treatments fix this? I am obsessing over the loss of volume in my face and the horrible, jagged oval shape in the middle of my chin.
