i want 10mm more projection and couple mm vertical lengthening of my chin and i know it can be achieved by sliding genioplasty. But im also not happy about the frontal shape of my chin and i want a round smooth chin implant to make my chin shape better. So is it possible to have a sliding genioplasty to give me vertical length and part of the 10mm projection and then lay another chin implant on the top to make it up to full 10mm？
