What method of scar revision is needed for an appendix scar that is indented? (photos)

March 13, 2015
Asked By:richardo11 in Ireland, IE

I got my appendix out 7 years ago and now it has healed to a point the scar has faded very light and would not be noticeable if it wasn't for the fact it is indented causing a decline in the skin area there. At first I thought it was just my body fat percentage that was causing the indent but after dropping down very low I realised the indent is the scar itself. What can be done for this and would the final result completely remove the indent
