A member asked:
How resilient is skin to laser treatments? (i.e. tattoo removal; fraxel resurfacing). is there a threshold where the skin says 'uncle'?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Different types.: Different types of lesions require different types of laser You need to show this to a derm doc that does laser and he /she will tell you how it can be done safely and when to stop. Not that laser may not be the best answer and may need to seek a plastic surgeon advice.
