Blister on abdomen after my tummy tuck. Will I end up with a scar? (Photo)

pivver
2 weeks after my FTT with lipo I developed a blister which eventually formed a dark circle underneath and popped. After reading on necrosis I called my PS who said he would evaluate it when I go in for my appt (Feb 19th) and watch for infection. Currently using bactroban and seems to be healing with granulation on the edges. I did remove the dark tissue with gentle scrubbing and has not become infected. My question is; will I end up with a scar?
