Fix Nose Crater Left by Dermatologist? (Photo)

June 14, 2013
Asked By:fluffhead

I went to my dermatologist about 6 weeks ago to have a flesh-colored bump removed from the side of my nose. They ended up digging way into the skin instead of shaving it flat, and I now have an unsightly divot on my nose. It gets very red during the day and seems to be getting much worse. I am extremely self-conscious about it, and my dermatologist doesn't really seem to care. He recommended dermabrasion, but not for at least a YEAR? They told me it would be flat and healed, and now won't help.
