Have you looked into Copper Peptides? They have a section on recovery from procedures like lasers and peels on their website. CPs can help skin repair itself with out scars. They are not a quick fix, however. And it's a good idea to start out using them slowly to avoid what's called 'the uglies' (CPs remodel skin very fast and moving too fast can cause some temporary loosening of the skin).
Read about them here:

There are several testimonials of users who had damage from lasers that looked like burns or gave them hyperpigmentation. The CPs got rid of that for them. |

Thirteen years after my silk co2 laser resurfacing, I am still with hardly any pigment around my mouth and on my chin. I know that the question is about "hyper" not "hypo" pigmentation, but that machine sure changed me. Mostly because the procedure was for the sake of vanity. The redness immediately after the surgery stayed for a few months and then at about the one year mark I had settled in to minimal colour (I am medium/fair complexion).
Periodically I see a specialist and he is encouraging in the fact that they are always working on correcting skin "scaring" such as this. The research is geared towards burn and accident victims and progress is being made.
Apparently the new generation of lasers is supposed to be awesome
P.S. In my case, Copper Peptides did not help me one bit. I've lost track of products (both prescriptive and over the counter) that I have tried and all that changed was my bank account balance. |
