What Type of Surgery to Improve Jawline/Profile? (photo)

November 8, 2011
Asked By:............

I've always hated my profile and believe my face looks overly feminine (lack of a clear jawline) and gaunt (nasolabial folds etc). I am undergoing orthodontic work for moderate overcrowding but am realistic that I may need further cosmetic work. Being on a budget I'd have to have one surgery at a time. I am considering jaw and chin implants, neck liposuction and rhinoplasty. Which is likely to have the biggest impact?
