Is there anything that can be done to remove internal scar tissue from the chin? (photo)

I had a chin reduction two years ago through the submental approach. I have residual dimpling and unevenness due to what I think is scar tissue and/or extra remaining tissue. I would like to avoid fillers, as my original goal was a vertical chin reduction, and my results are already a bit difficult to see owing to the remaining extra tissue/scar tissue. Is there anything that can be done to remove it and avoid making the chin larger?
