Answer: Risk of herpes reactivation is high Risk of herpes reactivation is high after any trauma to the area of skin that you tend to get it. Sun, laser (including Fraxel Laser), peels and needle sticks can all stimulate it. We recommend to our patients that they take Valcyclovir the night before and day of their treatment.
