In the past few years, my cleft chin has become increasingly more asymmetrical. I think my entire jaw may be longer on the side where the chin is longer, but I'm not sure. I'm also wondering if my TMJ may be a factor in to all of this. I can't afford surgery, and since I'm only 18, I'm not sure if this would be the best option but having this is incredibly embarrassing for me. I prefer the smaller side better, but if Botox is my best optio than I'll do it.
