Answer: Scar improvement Dermal filler is definitely an option, but will require annual treatments. Given your young appearance you may want to consider fat grafting instead as this can provide a more permanent solution. In addition fat graft may have the ability to remodel the scar based on delivery of stem cells to the area. Adjunctive treatments with microneedling, PRP, and laser resurfacing can provide additional improvement if filling the indentation alone is not satisfactory.

Answer: Yes, it can be improved with Dermal Fillers. Dermal fillers are medicine that are injected to create volume and structure. This includes 'indented' scars. Because here, your doctor is using the dermal filler to create a 'spacer' for the natural volume your skin has lost through injury. Keep in mind that you may need more than one treatment for optimal results. And it will never return to baby smooth baseline that it may have been before injury. Thank you.
