How to get rid of big indented scar from a blister (liquid nitrogen)? (Photo)

Question

I got liquid nitrogen for little skin tag in between my eyes. It healed but left a scar, went back he suggested another liquid nitrogen treatment to get rid of it. Blister was huge, he said it would come off in 2 days, it didn't so I washed it off. Left a huge indent scar. Really dissapinted in my doctor's advice and now I have no idea what to do. It is hard to cover up, I just wanted my skin to feel even, now it's even worse! Please help! Any advice or thoughts would be much appreciated!!!

Local wound care followed by Plato's Scar Serum, pulsed dye laser, and fractional laser to improve the scar. Best, Dr. KaramanoukianLos Angeles

This needs proper wound care at this time, may need lasers or surgical repair.  I suggest seeing a cosmetic dermatologists opinion who specializes in lasers.  Best, Dr. Emer.

This is a potentially dangerous area to have an infection. I would see the doctor for evaluation and prescription for antibiotics. In the interim, place some neosporing on the wound.Dr H Karamanoukian
