After the puncture on my tortoise's neck has closed, he has on the sight of the puncture a less than a centimeter puff or a slightly thick layer of skin under the puncture.
Is that ok and will go after the puncture heals completely ?
I posted no picture because it is unnoticeable by the camera.

Sounds like scar tissue to me and that would be normal after a puncture wound.

As long as the "puff" is not due to something stuck under the skin then it is likely just scar tissue...
