How to treat hyperpigmentation from IPL burns? (Photos)

Pulses87
I had IPL done and I got some burns. Those burns scabbed off and I'm left with scars (see pics). I have had a few consults and I'm getting a range of ideas, from peels to q-switch yag treatments. I'm horrified from this experience and think these procedures will just make it worse. What a safe and appropriate way forward here? Thanks! realself has not been allowing me to upload photos, see my google drive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RHDak45fxaHZDtvcZP6Bfd0w2_cxf-KH?usp=sharing
