Deep labiomental fold and curved chin after sliding genioplasty. Will this subside with more time? (Photos

Asked By:number23 in Florida, FL

I'm 10 weeks post-op from a lower jaw advancement with a sliding genioplasty. My bite is fine now, but I am devastated with my chin results. Since I had been moving my jaw forward to cover my overbite prior to surgery, my OS told me I wouldn't see a difference in my appearance after surgery, but sadly, I do. Will I get my desired results with more healing time? If not, if I reverse the sliding genioplasty, will I then have my desired results? What happened to cause my chin to look this way?
