I have a small hole on my forehead from an accident when I was a kid it's been about 20 years now. It's around half a centimeter wide and deep. What kind of surgery would work best to fix this?

For a small, relatively shallow hole on the forehead from a past injury, a combination of treatments might be best. Punch excision followed by laser resurfacing or filler injections could be effective

I'm 22 and haven't been to the gym or played sports in a while so my physical activity is basically zero. I've noticed my nipples are puffy but I'm not sure if it's gyno or just fat. If I get surgery, will it mess up my chest shape since I plan to start gym later. Also does homeopathy work for puffy nipples when there's no gland growth just puffiness
