Do I Have to Treat the Entire Face With Fraxel If I Only Need A Certain Area?

beauty1508
I already had one fraxel treatment in order to correct acne scars which I only have on my cheecks. i am 27 years old and I don't have any fine lines or any other issues. I have a "thick" skin and I was quite red and swollen after the first treatment. I was wondering is it possible to treat only the area that needs improvement which in my case would be my cheecks?
