Asked By:Joainne Fahd in San Diego, TX

Dear doctor, I am really confused. Willing to make a chin implant,however, i want the incision to be from outside trying to avoid infection but reallly worried about the scar .. Will it be visible & obvious?? And can it be removed by laser??! the surgeon suggested a genioplasty but i don't know why i fear it!! I feel like it's a serious, big surgery.. more money.. bone cut & probably my family won't agree... is the scar a real issue!?? I am not willing at all to make inner incision thankyou very much
