Visible indent where quad graft was taken from?

It’s been a bit over a year, and it doesn’t seem like my muscle is building specifically around where the graft was taken. It’s like a little valley disconnecting two areas of my quad, particularly noticeable when I’m squatting. It’s hard to take a picture of though.

Recovery has been bad, has anyone else gone through anything similar? I asked my surgeon, who I selected for their expertise in knee surgeries (would never recommend them to anyone else, even if they’ve done numerous surgeries for professional athletes), and he said it’s fine?
