6.5 months post op Gynecomastia surgery, I had indentation after steroid injection. Will it resolve themselves? (photo)

pcsnyc
I had gyne surgery 6.5 months ago with a top gyne surgeon. I developed hypertrophic scars. I received steroid injections my doctor said he was conservative with the amount given. After 2 months I noticed a small indentation. Only visible when flexing or raising arms. Also skin thinning on chest contour. In time I was told I could get Fat injections. Will indentations resolve themselves? Will having another procedure be the only option? Can saline injections or fillers help release the skin?
