Hi, I’m booked to have my surgeon take a look in a couple weeks but have not been happy with post op care and wondering if there are opinions on this dent that developed recently, I think in same spot where I had a steroid injection for swelling from surgeon but not sure if related. I have thin skin there and of course it feels bumpy underneath where I had a slight bump removed. Thanks in advance!
