Chin implant removal scar tissue, now fat atrophy after steroid. What do I do?

ANosePersonInUsa
Hi, I had a chin implant place October 2021. I had it removed Feb 2022. After removal, I was left with a HUGE chin area, and think it's due to a great deal of scar tissue. Steroid injections gave me fat atrophy. Is there another way to get rid of the scar tissue? Could it be cut out surgically? Could I also do saline injections where the fat atrophy is? Would advanced imaging show the scar tissue and the amount of fat atrophy? How do I fix both?
