- Male - 28 years I'm due to undergo a chin liposuction and my doctor says he'll be making an inscision under my chin and the resulting scar will be about 5mm. 1. I have thick beard, would the surgery leave a bald patch at the inscision area? If yes, what post-surgery options do I have? 2. Would a person standing in front of me notice my scar? 3. What's the latest scar creme on the market? 4. I can't find any pictures of the scar on people who've had the operation. Is there a place I can look?
