How well does laser scar removal work?

I have a really bad keloid scar on my chest due to surgery. I’ve tried Mederma, silicone sheets, and even steroid injections, but nothing seems to help. I was wondering if laser scar removal will have better effects. My dermatologist said that effects would be similar to those of steroid injections, and that the laser can flatten the scar but would not help with the discoloration. Is this true? Has anyone had experience where the laser flattened the scar and reduced discoloration? And has anyone tried both a laser and steroid injections and found that a laser works better? Thanks for your input.
