Hi! The result of Co2 laser resurfacing is fantastic but it depends heavily on the post procedure care like use of sunscreens and appropriate recovery creams.
The result is a slow process requiring lot of patience especially in deep scars. A trauma scar has varying depth. The result is good but slow and not very visible in a couple of months.
At least 6 to 12 sessions are required for good results.
Next Steps
Consult your treating doctor.
