Chin Implant Removal: How long does scar tissue capsule take to resorb?

Inventive803367
So i am planning to get my chin implant removed as it was too big. The doctor said even when he takes it out there will be a scar capsule there so it will not look like I had taken it out. I had medpor in for 7 months. I want to go back to my preop look. How long will the capsule take to resorb?
