hi,
it is hard for me to tell 100%. however, i would say silicone with 1 or 2 efforts would improve it but not make it as good as i would like. you may need 1 or 2 rounds of CROSS acid to finish the job. as you probably know any method never leads to a perfect result but i am confident that i should improve the situation better than your laser. if i am right with what i see, i would do a silicone treatment, wait about 3 months to see if collagen is improving it further over that time, then make a decision whether to go to another silicone or go to a CROSS or call it. hope that helps.
best,
sml
