Will hyperpigmentation after fraxel laser (for stretch marks) go away?

April 16, 2017
Asked By:MH879 in Toronto, ON

I did fraxel all over my body basically for stretch marks two months ago and it's still there ( laser scar ) like a huge rectangle on my thighs . I didn't use retin A after the treatment because my doctor didn't tell me and now I'm gonna start using it tomorrow. But I'm really worried it will never go away. I have a very sensitive skin that heals slow.
