Fraxel dual or Q-switched Nd:YAG for unresolved PIH?

ahsd
I am a skin type 4 and have a patch of pigmented skin on my face, present for around 7 years, caused by a rash which I picked at. I have tried hydroquinone based creams before which only helped a little. I have been given 2 laser options by different people; the fraxel dual and low-fluence Q-switched Nd:YAG. I am not sure which I should try first so would be grateful if I could get some opinions on which of the 2 lasers, or any other for that matter, would work best. Thank you for your time
