Which is better to treat keloid? Pulsed dye laser or fractional laser? What is the difference between them?

I have a redness on the bridge of my upper lip that hasn’t gone away for a year. I originally thought that I had herpes but it turned out just to be some type of Fordyce spots. Unfortunately I put everything on the kitchen sink on it including basically apple cider vinegar essential oils, and I think I just ruined the pigmentation and the dermis, it is not very noticeable but I definitely notice it. I went to, two different dermatologist, the one said he didn’t think a laser would do anything and prescribe me something called ubiquinone, the second one said that may be a laser, pulsating laser would do something to reduce the redness in the blood vessels from the face. I’m pretty worried to make it worse, that would be very bad. I have tried every single redness cream available such as Kalendala Alatone, Centela.
