Erbium Laser for Indian or Dark Skin Types?

sammyj786
I Want to Have a Erbium Laser Treatment on the Face and Around the Eye Due to Pigmentation. Is Eribum laser suitable on indian or dark skin types? Another major question i have is whether it could cause keloids on my face because i do have some keloid scarring on my body. None on my face. I hear its very hard or impossible to get keloids around the eye? So should i go ahead with these treatments?
