Need help in coding this procedure. Would appreciate any input.
Right chin lesion accessed through the oral vestibule.
Using a cutting electrocautery, the incision was created using blunt dissection, this was taken down to the level of the mental nerve and the submucosal tissues.

The wound was closed inlayers with 4-0 chromic suture........
