My scar is darker after having CO2 fractional laser. What are my options?

I had my fractional laser on my leg scar. But the scar is now darker than before. I message the medical aesthetician who did the procedure about my concern. But she told me just to wait for 4-6 months. But the scar is so hyperpigmented now and it bothers me a lot.
