Without seeing your problem, I can't comment on the best option for repair. I would suggest visiting a facial plastic surgeon since they focus on cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the face only.

D.J. Verret, MD answers: What should I do if I have a large lump after Mohs surgery?
I had Mohs done on small basal @ center forhead. I was left w/ a concave wide white scar, deep brow furrows, and a 10mm lump where final sutures were done 2yrs ago. One steroid injection helped flatten the lump some, but refused anymore. Taping flattens it but puffs up again after 1 hr.
Three derms & three surgeons won't help - they all said nothing will work on furrows & only offered more cuts to fix lump. The Internet says small injections will flatten lump w/ a spread out treatment.
Why can't I find someone to do this? Why no fillers for furrows? I even asked about fat filling, but I'd rather try a filler if the lump sinks in.
The lump looks like a big obvious zit! My hair is too fine to cover over.
Anyone have idea or referral? People suggest I should have it checked. Each Dr. gave different reason for why it's there. I have a small spot now on my cheek & I'm afraid to have procedure again.
