Scar tissue making chin uneven. How do I make my chin look even after I had it stitched up? (Photo)

Asked By:serendipity555 in San Francisco, CA

I got in to an accident and split my chin open, had about 8 stitches to close it back up 3 years ago. It has caused my chin to look lopsided. When I run on it I can feel the scar tissue underneath. What is the best procedure to even this out? Chin implants? Laser to get rid of the scar tissue underneath? Any advice is hugely appreciated
