Receding Chin - 17 Year Old Male

September 3, 2010
Asked By:anon9 in UK

Hi, I'm hoping to get some professional opinions on my facial profile. My biggest concern is my lack of chin, because it's very flat and weak. So I took a photo and did some photoshopping to see whether a chin implant (or chin osteotomy?) would improve the aesthetics (below). I've added a front view image to help explain what I mean by "flat" chin. If it's any help to add, my dentist tells me that my teeth are perfect so there's no underbite or overbite All opinions are appreciated
