Dermapen or Fraxel laser? (Photo)

June 11, 2016
Asked By:MaryP2 in Ireland, IN

I'm 34 year old female with acne scarring from cystic acne that I had a few years back. I have quite pale skin but I seem to scar and mark quite easily. I was researching both Dermapen and ipixel Fraxel laser treatments and I'm still very confused as to which would be best for my skin. I hear Fraxel is great but there is an increased risk of hyperpigmentation and I'm concerned due to my skin type. Any help/advise would be much appreciated.
