I had ablative erbium laser resurfacing nearly seven weeks ago .Will I have any more improvement than I'm seeing now?

kate84
I was quite pleased with the improvement I saw 3/4 weeks after my treatment but now at nearly 7 weeks it seems my scars are returning . Will I have any further improvement from now on ?. Would it be possible to have a further laser treatment to get more improvement ?My doctor said before my treatment I could only have one but have read about people having 2 or 3 . Is there anything else I could try ?.
