Bumps and Blisters Normal After Fraxel Restore?

September 7, 2008
Asked By:cutetomato in florida

Numerous small, whitish bumps appeared approximately twelve hours after I underwent Fraxel Restore Treatment, mainly on my chin and lower cheek area. I was wondering what they are and if I could avoid getting them on my next treatment. These things seem to exfoliate as the days go by, but I fear that they might cause scars.
