Chin Liposuction to Fix Witch's Chin?

Would Chin liposuction be an option for a girl in her mid 20s with a "witch's chin" if you know the cause of this is not the bone, but tissue (fat, and other previous fillers)? Which would be the best way to approach this problem? Would this procedure leave a scar? If so, how big would it be? How much does this procedure cost with local anesthesia? How long is the recovery time for this procedure? Any risk of making it worse? Many thanks!

Fixing Witch's Chin

The best way to fix it is by making an incision in a naturally occuring crease under the chin, then removing extra fat and muscle tissue from the chin. Liposuction alone will not achieve that. Regards
