Hello! I am looking to refine my jaw area and make it look more feminine, I have photos for reference of what I’m looking to achieve. I currently have a medium chin implant with wings, making me feel like my face is quite round. Would a smaller feminine implant be a better option, genioplasty or jaw surgery? To refine my jaw area; I currently get filler but it makes my jaw “indent” when I smile. Thank you in advance! :) Mackenzie
