Will steroid injections flatten thick skin?

Hi,

I have a scar on my forehead which has healed well, but has 'thickened' tissue underneath it which has caused a raised bump. It now looks like I have a permanent bump on my head due to the lump.

I have been to see a plastic surgeon, and he said they cannot remove the lump, as there is nothing to remove - only thickened skin which is causing the raise.

I have been referred for steroid injections - will this shrink the thickened skin under the scar permantently? What is the success rate?

Is there any other treatment I can try to reduce the thickened skin? I have tried all oils/ silicone gels/ plasters etc.

Thanks
