Chin shaving/shaping - why is it so rare & what are the risks?

Asked By:GeorgiaMom2 in Columbia, South Carolina

My chin is too long and is asymmetrical. I have read that it is technically possible to have your chin shaved and reshaped. Will someone help me understand why this procedure is so rare and what are the risks involved?
