I have a dent in my butt cheek, upper left side, it feels like a golf ball-sized hole in the collagen. Will laser help? (Photo)

Would laser therapy or microneedling help pull the collagen back together? I don't want a hole forever :( My chiropractor says it most likely a collagen issue. it is discouraging because it feels like a hole in my butt and its rather discolored. It doesn't hurt at all. I am 31 yrs old 5'7 173lbs and 38% body fat. I am on a fitness journey to lose weight. I exercise 4-6 times per week. I usually do barre classes that use a lot of glute muscles. I am curious what cause this seperation of my collagen :(
