How long does collagen take to regenerate and raise depressed acne scars after Pico Focus Laser?

JelloG
Hi there, I just did my first Pico Focus treatment 2 weeks ago on a small area of depressed acne scars with pigmentation. Since then, I have noticed that my pigmentation has lightened quite a bit but the depression of the scar is still obvious. My next review is spaced 4 weeks from my first treatment hence it'll be in 2 weeks' time. May I ask, is the collagen beneath my acne scars still being regenerated on its own to gradually raise the depression with time and make it less obvious?
