Can microneedling (with dermaroller) reverse laser damage? (Photos)

October 17, 2017
Asked By:poorbunny888 in Beverly Hills, California

Are these laser damage issue (textural, newly formed indented scars) could be treated w/ microneedling (with dermaroller)? Is it possible just to have the treatment only within the problematic area? would it cause uneven texture & tone with the un-treated surrounding? what would be the worst case scenario with microneedling (with dermaroller) in my case? I am too afraid to get another laser treatments or even dermapen w/ RF due to my past experience even w/ V-Beam laser
