What Can I Expect For My Profile From Chin Surgery Vs Rhinoplasty? (photo)

Asked By:jane321 in B.C.

Hi. My jaw points down and my chin is week. I would like my jaw to appear more squared. My bite/teeth are excellent, and I don't want to do anything to disturb that. I've thought about chin implants, but I worry that it may accentuate the downward angle of my jaw. Also, my nose has a high bridge, so I am wondering if rhinoplasty might off set the look of the jaw. Right now, my jaw line and the bridge of my nose are almost parallel lines. What are my options?
