Five weeks ago I had a large skin cancer removed from my temple next to my eye using a flap repair. A pincushion scar has resulted and a friend who is a nurse suggested that this is trapped fluid and will dissipate especially if I keep squeezing it towards the side of the pincushion with no join. I've been doing this constantly for several weeks with no change and I feel that the 'pincushion' contains fat rather than fluid. What are the options for correcting this?
