Is it advisable or even practical to try to correct my jawline & chin after having orthodontic work done in my teens? (Photos)

Asked By:mholljo in Bowling Green, KY

I have seen several similar questions, however, none have addressed my specific question. I had braces for a few years in my teens that dramatically changed the shape of my face. I had more of a defined heartshaped jawline more prominent chin more narrow cheeks and fuller (protruding) lips. Now my face is wider, flatter & no chin. These changes have caused me anxiety and depression for years now, as the face I see in the mirror is not the way I see myself in my head. She does not look like me.
