Hello, I'm really insecure of my side profile because I feel like I have the combo weak chin + long nose. I read recently that mouth breathing could be one of the causes of a weak chin. Is it true? As I have allergies I'm a part time mouth breather... Should I get a chin implant to correct this, and rhinoplasty? I wonder if I have a deviated septum because of allergies. Thank you for your answers.
