Will this small indent on my nose heal after mole removal? (Photos)

Asked By:cglance1 in West Virginia, WV

About a month ago I used a small amount of apple cider vinegar to remove a small red mole on my nose. It was already checked by a dermatologist a year ago as non cancerous. I know how stupid this choice was and I have already consulted. Dermatologist. He didn’t seem overly concerned and gave me a steroid injection which has done nothing to improve it. He also put me on tretinoin 0.05%. Is this just taking a long time to heal? Or am I looking at a scar that will need treatment?
