I had Fraxel laser done 11 days ago and my skin is still peeling. Is this normal?

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?
