Classic vs. endoscopic double chin surgery

What is the difference between classic and endoscopic approach for the treatment of double chin? Are the scars smaller after endoscopic surgery? How long does the post-operative healing take?

In classic surgery, a sub-mental crease incision is made, whereas in endoscopic surgery, a 1-3 mm incision is made in the sub-mental crease. Post-operative healing takes about a week to ten days; however complete healing may take a few weeks.
