Laser hair removal burn, will this scar? Treatment options? (photo)

Asked By:Teejj in Brooklyn, NY

I was recently burned by Alexondrite laser when i should have received Yag laser. However, I have been keeping the scabs moist by applying silver sulfadiazine and aquaphor every 4 hours and a tefla dressing on top. Dermatologist advised me to soak the scabs in hydrogen peroxide so that they fall off and I am just worried if this is the best thing to do. Growing up olive skinned, picking scabs always caused them to scar dark. Please help, I don't want to cause more damage.
