Hello,  new poster here, although i have been lurking for awhile now!

I just wanted to seek some advice in knowing what kind of scarring I have and what options can I consider.

I have done a few treatments such as (in order):

Erbium Glass (1x, 2% improvement?)

Non-ablative lasers (2x, doc combined multiple non-ablative lasers on one treatment)

Most recently I did a subcision + filler (Rejuran S) that looked fantastic while swollen but now it's back to normal-ish (5% improvement?)

So overall, I'm a little disappointed in the results so far, so looking at other options... so advice would be useful :(

I can already tell one of you issues. Your Dr is terrible and did not treat your scars in a customized plan. They just used laser on them. Find someone else. Perhaps it's sensitivity and slow healing too...

We don't do laser first, we do manual methods, as this makes the best outcome. IT's a very slow process, I am not even going to ask the time period or settings used as many people take 3 years to heal. 
 

Non-ablative lasers do nothing for scars. Perhaps for your discoloration.

You have textural icepicks, box cars, linear scars, a bit of slight rolling scars but they are not bad, and some discoloration
