How Will Fraxel Restore Affect Man's Facial Hair?

pgaffer
Does the Fraxel Restore laser initial remove the facial hair and then the hair grows back over time? I understand an IPL for age spots would do this and the hair grows back in a blotchy manner. If the hair surface is removed, how long does it take for the facial hair to grow back and look normal again? Any risk of the hair not growing back in spots? Thank you.
