Asked By:emdee49 in Nyack, NY

I am of Asian descent and tan very easily. I had lipo done on stomach n flanks n breast fat transfer over a year n a half ago. Unfortunately i didn’t retain much of the breast fat transfer and the lipo left bruising on obliques...doctor did laser treatment to try to fade them n I’ve also tried skin lighting cream but I don’t see much improvement. What else can I do?
