Noticeable dimple appeared near tip of nose, will this go away on its own? Why did this happen? (Photos)

Asked By:Bright819537

Pictures attached, sorry they’re low quality. I’m a trans guy on testosterone right now and my skin has been much more oily than usual (I’ve been having acne problems). Other than that, there’s been nothing else unusual going on. Never had a rhinoplasty. Could this be a sign of something serious? Or just a natural development (possibly from testosterone changes? Is there anything I can do to make this mark go away?
