Is there any way to fix this "dent" where my scar is? (Photo)

My TT ended up being flatter below the scar than above. You can see my 6-mo "official" post-op pic my PS took (solid dark behind). I was underweight then & I still had a dent at my scar. I have gained weight (too much, I'm 8.4# over goal), now it's REALLY noticeable. You can see it in form-fitting dresses. I wouldn't mind if I didn't have a board-flat belly & it had a bit of a curve to it. but it's not a curve, it stops abruptly. I don't want to pay for another surgery… if it can even be fixed.
