Is there anything I can do about this white scar/hypopigmentation? (Photo)

Marilouise1
I got this scar in April 2023. It's gotten better since then but there's still pigmentation that has yet to return. I know hypopigmentation is a lot more difficult to treat than hyperpigmentation. I've tried many things and currently am doing red light therapy, micro-needling, silicone scar tape, and sometimes Latisse too. I have uvb wand as well but never really use it. I just am curious to know if there's anything I can do or just let time do its thing and hope for the best
