Pigmentation differences after dermabrasion on one cheek

Tags: cheeks, hypopigmentation
A Year Ago I Had Dermabrasion on One Cheek. I had hypopigmentation and now one cheek is obviously lighter and it is difficult to apply make-up that matches. I am considering dermabrasion on the other cheek. Any advice?

Most hypopigmentations after dermabrasions are temporary.
Most times when you get dermabraded your skin gets lighter or darker than the surrounding skin, doing another dermabrasion on the other cheek isn't a bad idea to match the two sides.
