I had my fraxel laser done on 16/1 and its now been 11 days post treatment. I still have scabs on my cheeks and forehead that are still peeling. I'm using a gentle cleanser to wash my face and a recovery repair cream that i'm applying 2-3 times a day. Is it normal for healing to take this long?

I believe that you would benefit the most from combination of treatments including laser, microneedling and microdermabrasion. You may need some fillers. It is hard to tell just by looking at this picture. This would minimize your scars and improve your skin texture and appearance. I advise you...
I am so sorry for your problem. I treat a great deal of patients who are Indian with your type of skin and it has to be treated very carefully since it is prone to burn if too much heat is used with the laser. It appears from your photo that there may have been too much heat used in this area. ...
There are several studies showing there is no effect on fillers with laser procedures. I would have no hesitation about doing the Fraxel laser. In fact, they can be performed on the same day.
