I had undergone 3 sittings of fractional co2 laser so far for an injury scar on my chin which is healing well without any hyperpigmentation after the scab falls . I have also undergone my first laser sitting for a few atrophic scars on my cheek..its been 6 days post treatment .the scabs are still in place..will I develop hyperpigmentation after scab falls..I'm scared coz I read now lasers can cause pigmentation
