Is filler a good option to raise an indented scar on my forehead after MOHS and a scar revision? (photo)

I had MOHS surgery on my forehead approximately six months ago. The scar healed indented and so my dermatologist redid the surgery in an effort to improve the aesthetic and employed every technique he knew to try to get a better overall appearance. Once again it has healed indented. Is filler a good option and if so which one do you recommend? Is my dermatologist qualified to inject this? Any information you have would be helpful.
