I have a chicken pox scar in the middle of my forehead —what can be done? (Photos)

Christian1
Hello, I have a chicken pox like scar for years. tried microneedling, laser, plexr and the list goes on. the subcision did help but I want to ask if there is a chance to get a scar that is not so visible. Maybe an excision or a punch excision would work? It’s a very white spot that is sometimes visible and that’s what bothers me the most. How much would a scar from excision look like?
