Are these hypertrophic scars from laser tattoo removal? If yes, how can I remove them? (photos)

Unfortunately I've been getting laser tattoo removal, and it's led to blistering which have led to scarring. Some scars are old, some new. The newest one is really bothering me the most because it's pink and has gotten more noticable recently, and it's raised. I get sick to my stomach looking at my arm every day now, in certain lighting they all look worse. Could this be removed with silicone gel sheets? Or is there something a doctor could do to remove them completely?
