Hi I am 27 and live in the UK. I fell over on 7th February and ended up having 2 stitches in my Cheek.It has resulted in me having a dimple when I smile. I can still feel a lump under the skin as it is recovering which is going down slowly. I put on dermatix scar cream on it multiple times a day and bio oil. I am self conscious of it and was wondering if I could have laser / filler in it to remove it.
