Mostly it is done for boxcars. Yes, I have done it andhave seen very good improvement from it. Its very hard for me to find the scar, it smothesthe edges and that blends the scar in cheeks which doesnt create shadows. In normal light its very hard to find the scar.
Remember it wont do much about the depth but the edges will blend in and hence look more smooth

What kind of laser did you have and how many sessions to see the result, if I may ask? I'm also very interested in improving boxcars this way.
I thinkI had the fotona laser in fully ablative setting for the boxcar edges. This will not work on very deep boxcars because the depth is just too much still it would give you a boost so basically it will be a pit without the hard edges. I just had one session for it, some boxcars blended well and some did not,maybe my doctor missed. Maybe I need to do another session to take care of it
@getsmart121Speedy recovery and may youhave good results. Where did you have the laser done if you don't mind sharing the name of the doctor?

I did at with Mark B Taylor. He has some videos on youtube where he demonstrates that. Sometimes he excises the scar if it is not going to make a big impact on the scar surface with just edge resurfacing, doing in the same session as laser heals the skin with no excision line. But its a hit and miss with excision but there is higher chance of no excision line doing with laser. The smaller the excision, the excellent the results are.
