Restylane for Indented Surgery Scar?

Sometimes fillers do not lift indentations. The depressed scar may be held down by bands of collagen that you heal with underneath the scar. If the area is held down in this fashion, the filler might squeeze out to the surrounding skin and make that area look thicker and not change the depth of the scar but make it look deeper in contrast to the thick surrounding skin. Subcision is a procedure that can be done to lift the scar first and then a filler can be done. This works bettter if the edge of the round scar you have is smooth and not a sharp “cliff-drop” edge. If the edge is tapered or blends into the surrounding skin then the lifting will look better. The most important concern is not to do this until your physician is confident that all the tumor is gone! They may wish to wait one to two years, or more, after surgery before such revision

You can use a filler such as Restylane, Juvederm or Radiesse to fill up the depression. However, all these are temporary measures. Silicon is a permanent filler but I do not use it. It can cause permanent granulomas (bumps).
Your best option is to undergo a flap reconstruction. In this procedure skin is borrowed typically from your forehead and moved down to fill out the defect. After 3 weeks the attachment to the forehead is removed. Later the existing scar can be sanded down by laser or dermabrasion.

As you can see if your are hammer, the world looks like a nail. We surgeons like to fix things with surgery. However, filling depressed scars with Restylane and Perlane is very effective and does not require the expense, down time, and uncertainty associated with surgery.
The hyaluronic fillers are very helpful for these small scars. One can easily get 6 to 12 months of benefit from this type of treatment. Since only a small volume is typically needed, your doctor can use the balance of the filler in other facial area such as the nasolabial fold.

Fillers will give temporary relief. We would prefer Restylane or Juvederm rather than semipermanent fillers, especially on the nose, which can form granulomas in some cases.
Finesseful, artistic reconstructions can usually done that will give permanent improvement by restoring the tissues lost to cancer by using tissues like the ones that were removed, all from the patient's own body.
Board certified plastic surgeons with an interest in cancer reconstructions are ideal to consult with for this problem.

Injections can be helpful but very unpredictable.
I would prefer to use something like Radiesse which is a bit thicker and more long lasting.  Restylane does not last that long and neither does juvederm.
Good luck.
