I got burned from laser hair removal and now my scars have turned white. Will they heal or will they be permanent? (Photo)

vjohan09
Hello - a month ago I got burned across my entire right leg from laser hair removal. I had numerous red burns across my leg. A month later - they have turned white but I worry this will be permanent. I am currently applying Celacyn three times a day, Vitamin E oil and Bio Oil 1-2 times a day. I know it has only been a month but am hoping that this will not be permanent :( First picture is the day after the burns. Other pictures are current (a month later)
