45, female, brown skin - discoloration following Lumecca scar treatment, will I recover my pigmentation? (Photo)

June 25, 2023
Asked By:Patty Cast in Cheektowaga, New York

I’m a 45 year-old female with brown skin color. I had a tummy tuck done about 8 months ago. In an attempt to improve my belly button and TT scars, the doctor suggested laser treatment (Lumecca). I was burned and had blisters after this procedure. Now I’m more afraid that they caused permanent discoloration. Will I recover my pigmentation? Please advise
