So i have a small half a dime size keloid on my right cheek near the jawline and the derm has been treating me with cortisone shots once a month since january 2015, just 2 months ago I realized the size wasn't reducing so he upped the dosage (idk what the dosage is but I will find out)

 

So when he first gave me the cortisone shot of the higher dose 2 months ago, he gave me an extra shot a few inches from the keloid, it was just a oversized white head with like a red bump, I am not sure what he thought of it but he injected it with a cortisone shot of the higher dosage.

 

Now I am experiencing side effects of denting/ pigment color changes to a more white.

 

I just started accutane for the second time last month if anything matters.

 

What can I do about the mis- injection he did?

Hopefully, I hope you get a good answer here from someone that has had the same experience as you to give you good advice , But if not, I would take this same question over at RealSelf as you have many Dermatologist(skin experts) who read that site and give free expert advice on many skin issue problems.
