Internal scar from failed jaw implant surgery - is it possible and safe to remove? (photo)

Question

On the photo, you can see something like a cyst.. It actually is a internal scar from a failed jaw mandible implant surgery I had in the past The implant was moved from it's place and stacked in that position Stayed for a month there before I removed it and some fibrous capsule around it, was naturaly created there. Is it possible and safe to remove? I prefer finding a doctor in Turkey. cause I can't afford more than 200 euros for that.

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.
