Procedures for Correcting Facial Balance?

Jude14
Well, I know that I have a minor dorsal hump, but all my friends and family say it doesn't really affect the balance of my face from the font view, it only affects profile view. But when I look at myself in the mirror, compared to how I've changed since puberty, I know that there's something out of balance in my face but I can't quite put my finger on it. I'm unsure whether it's my chin, or over dominant masseter muscles. What procedures would make my my face more balanced? Please could you give any suggestions or questions I should ask a surgeon?
