Touch and go, the great thing is that you have Skin Type 1-2, hence permanent skin colour changes are less likely to occur. Regardless you will require very close follow up, in person, with a plastic surgeon and or a procedural dermatologist to ensure that wounds heal appropriately. They will discuss in detail methods to reduce, not eliminate scarring. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
