Am I a good candidate for sliding genioplasty? (Photo)

Asked By:Optimistic598715 in Spring, Texas

I am 20 y/o. 5ft 115 lbs. I had braces for almost 2 years and it pushed my lower jaw back a bit. I've always had lip incompetence but it's gotten worse after braces. Also in the past two months after braces I feel like my chin has gotten smaller. Could this be from weight gain or from the lip incompetence?
