Is the loss general, or in one place?
An assessment begins by separating the two: which areas have lost volume, whether the loss is spread across them or concentrated in one, and whether what you are seeing is volume at all. We will say plainly that one of the two materials cannot be dissolved, what each can and cannot change, and what we would advise if neither were right for you.
