How Can Lumps Formed After A Subcision Procedure Be Treated?
Hello, I had a subcision treatment done in February of this year. I am now left with 3 lumps as a result. They are noticable and hard when I touch them. My dermatologist said they healed nicely but I still feel them and see them, very much. It has now been 6 months.... He already gave me 3 cortisone shots over the past months but they made no difference for me. At all. I had massaged the area twice a day for months with also no result. What is my next option? I am hoping these lumps won t be there forever. But is there anything else I can try to make them go away? Thank you for your time! Best regards, Katie
