What procedure would best correct my horribly recessed chin/jaw? (Photo)

bowsandbrains
I have an (embarrassingly) recessed chin and lower jaw. I, obviously, have an awful profile, but i also suffer from jaw clicking and popping, and my teeth are very crowded. Self esteem is definetly an issue, but im also concerned of the long term effects this may have on my oral health. Based upon my photos, what surgery should I look into? Whether it be corrective corrective jaw surgery, genioplasty? Or possibly something that I have never heard of/considered?
