Immunosuppression alone is not an absolute contraindication for laser resurfacing in most cases. Some underlying medical condtions which are treated with immunosuppressive drugs can be. That being said, it is an elective procedure and the risks and potential benefits must be discussed. Risk of infection can be increased significantly with some immunosuppressive medications and should be dealt with prophylactically.

Immune suppression is not a CI or contra indication for fractional laser. The condition of your medical problem is. For example if you have lupus, laser is not indicated, but for transplantation of liver, no problem. Studies have shown that laser resurfacing can decrease the rate of skin cancer formation in transplant patients, especially if you are on aza. The cameo is that if you are immune suppressed, extra caution is needed to prevent infection, especially HSV and atypical bacterial infections.
