What procedure would I need for my hypertrophic scar? (Photo)

Jiday
So I’m trying to figure out what procedure I would need for my hypertrophic scar. I’ve injured my nose in the same place for the past 2 years. I first injured it in June 2022 then I injured it again in August 2023. There’s still a small bump over my nose and it’s not completely flat. Also the discoloration is very apparent and doesn’t look good as well as the texture. I just want to know if I should go the laser resurfacing route or the Laser scar removal route. Or maybe something else entirely.
