I was just wanting an opinion on what procedures could benefit my side profile, I don’t like my profile and feel my mouth sticks out (I don’t usually breath with my mouth open it’s just this picture) and that the lower half of my face is long, would I benefit from sliding genioplasty or can braces bring my teeth a little further back into my mouth? Would I benefit from a chin reduction? I just want my side profile to be more petite looking and not so long :) thanks
