2 weeks post CO2 laser treatment and still have track marks. Am I still healing or should I be worried? (photos)

As others with persisting tracklines I‘m worried as they seem to sometimes remain for a long time. Are they always due to bad/overlapping passes made by the provider? Here day 10&12 after treatment and NO change in lines since 7 days. Was instructed NOT to moisturize after procedure but make 10 min “soaks” with antiseptic+antibiotic cream twice daily until crust gone. Am I still healing and should be patient or should I worry about permanent damage and seek further treatment ASAP?
