How Do You Fix Hypopigmentation After Tattoo Removal?

4478anon
I had a tattoo removed on my lower back with laser. Now that the tattoo is gone the problem is that I have spots that have hypopigmentation on my back. My doctor said to fix it is to use Fraxel, more laser! Is this correct or is there another way to heal this problem?
