Sayana Press-injection site scaring

I'm just wondering if there is anyone on here who has been on Sayana Press contraception injection and has scaring around the injection site?
I've been on Sayana Press for nearly 2 years now but over the last 7 months or so I've suddenly developed what can only be described as a combination of bruising, thinning of the skin and what looks like stretch marks only around the injection sites. I don't have any other marks on my stomach at all. I was on the depo before sayana and never had any issues. I've also recently came off sayana press and was just wondering how long it took for people's periods to come back? (I know everyone is different). Been off it for 5 months now and not had a period yet.

I have what I can only explain as ‘dimples’ where I’ve injected myself, one on my stomach, one on my thigh and one on my bottom. I noticed this after the 2nd injection and strategically injected into a spot that I knew was smooth skin, and that ended up dimpling inwards. Definitely does something to the tissue around the area!
