Still Have Redness, 4 Weeks Post-Fraxel

June 13, 2008
Asked By:Neo88

I have done my 1st Fraxel laser treatment for acne scars. It’s been 4 week and still have redness on cheeks, they look like they had sun burn. I am also getting breakout. My skin type is brown and Doctor prescribed me bleach to reduce pigmentation change and light treatment for redness. Has anyone experienced this?
