Synthol as a filler for gynaecomastia surgery crater scar (divot under nipple)?

Supposing
I'm sure you know the type of scar I refer to, it's the all-too-common crater scar which forms under the nipples after liposuction to the male breast fat, as a result of too much fat being removed, and subsequent adhesion of the skin to underlying muscle. Could synthol be an incredibly cheap filler substance, given that a huge volume won't be required, and given that synthol is a relatively harmless substance that potentially lasts for about 3 years? Fat transfer hasn't been successful.
