Hi I am 22 and I went to my dermatologist and had actinic keratosis frozen off with liquid nitrogen. It is in the middle of my nose. This happened in august and I still have an indent in my nose. It’s relatively big and noticeable. I am so upset and embarrassed. I get saline injections about every month but it’s not working. What can I do?
