I have extreme texture and color irregularity on my nose after a nasty infection. A few doctors have recommended CO2 laser. I am also thinking about doing a 50% TCA peel.

The scarring is about three months old. I know it is early to treat - but a few doctors have expressed that early intervention is best.

Is there any hope that my nose will one day return to normal?

Your nose is not bad. No raised keloid or divot (pitting) in the pics. I just see red. Have the derms use v-beam, ipl, excel v or 1064nm laser to get rid of the red. Then you can decide on the c02 or TCA peels. I don't see why you need it though, no real issue besides red.
