Asked By:melb852 in Seaford, 07

HI I had erbium laser resurfacing done around 6 years ago. I have scars on my forehead and nose. I have tried fraxel non ablative, fat transfer, dermarolling and nothing has worked. I went to a surgeon who recommended erbium to soften the scars but also recommended doing the whole face again so I dont get the demarcation lines. Is it safe to have erbium resurfacing twice. The first time my face got very tight but he said he would do it on the lightest setting on my face and a bit deeper on the scars
