I have small keloids on my face/jawline...does fraxel improve appearance of keloids?

Iam scheduled for a few fraxel treatments..have a few scne scars on my cheeks and smal keloids on the jawline...I have heard it can help....any body have any experiences to share?

I don't have keloids but know what they are, it will be risky, any more messing with them can make them worse too, I am sure you know that, and as long as you know what you are stepping into, you know the "potential" consequences, it may be worth a try, but I would do it through a plastic surgeon with good reputation or a dermatologist with a good reputation, good luck
