Dent in my nose that keeps getting bigger, what are my options? (Photos)

April 20, 2017
Asked By:E908 in Jersey City, NJ

There's a dent in my nose that barely existed a year ago and it just keeps growing bigger and I don't know why. I do have a deviated septum and was hit with a metal door in my nose a few years back so could that be a reason? I don't know what's causing this dent and it got so much worse after I finished taking accutane. I'm desperate, please help
