Elevated glabella scar/cyst remaining from surgery 10 years ago, how to flatten without injections or large ellipse excision

June 24, 2018
Asked By:Chvlle1 in US

See photo captions. I've had many laser treatments for full face acne scarring but this bump hasn't responded to any. Fillers may help the depressed areas but is there a tiny incision technique or co2 punch that may flatten the elevated part? Raised scars are supposed to be easier to deal with than depressed but 2 local surgeons didn't have ideas other than a full ellipse excision. Who do I ask?
