Lipo and Dermabrasion for Fatty Lump Between Lower Lip and Chin?

farly_fs
I have a fatty lump between my lower lip and chin that bothering me aesthetically. It's stretchy, fatty lump, not a hard lump. A RealSelf doctor/contributor suggested me to do excision. But when I consulted a local plastic surgeon, he didn't suggest me to do excision. He suggested me to do local Liposuction and dermabrasion to flatten the surface skin. He also said excision will cause a bad scar on that area. So which is the best option for my problem?
