Uneven facial structure. What should I look into? (Photo)

Question

I’m a 115 lb 19 year old and i currently have braces (i had an overbite/over jet which is basically fixed now) I currently have juvederm under my eyes and i just got botox and juvederm in my chin to even my structure out but i’m still not happy with it. i don’t even know what to ask for. my ortho has suggested to extract premolars but will it help this? i really wanted to target the dip between my chin and lower cheek aswell as the fat under my bottom lip, what should i look into?

Do you have an under developed Mandible. This would also explain the overbite or over jet.

I suggest talking to a few oral surgeons about a sliding genioplasty or talk to plastic surgeons about a chin implant.  both specialties can do both procedures but it seems like oral surgeons have a preference for a sliding genioplasty and plastic surgeons tend to recommend implants more often.

Soft tissue manipulation is going to have a limited impact with the primary problem is based on bone structure.

That said, fillers can augment the chin very nicely as well.

Best,
