Will scar revision improve my cannula scars from lipo? (Photos)

alphaokc
I got traditional liposuction on my abdomen and flanks 4 months ago. Very happy with the results as my stomach doesn't look like a flat tire anymore lol. I have 6 visible cannula scars, one of which is slightly indented. I also have one scar that I'm moderately okay with.lm It's the smallest scar out of all 6 and after it lightens, is be okay with it. The Dr. is wanting to give me scar revision on all of them to make them smaller. Would this be beneficial?
