I am a 18 years old man, I am 6,1 ft, my body type would be normal.

Yes, you have a slightly recessed chin, but there are ways to improve your projection. Your best outcome would be with a genioplasty. Your chin would be brought forward and slightly angled down, creating more balance to your profile. If you are not looking for surgery, you could try chin fillers. Although they would not have the same result, they could add some definition and give you some idea of what it would look like with your chin brought out more.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

Just based on your photos, I would say that there does appear to be some recession of your chin.  Augmentation of the chin can be done with injectable fillers or a chin implant.
