It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Chin reduction can help with a large protruding chin 'Witch's chin'. This is usually an abundance of soft tissue which causes a bulge. The procedure involves making an incision below the chin, accessing the extra soft tissue and removing it while taking care to preserve the muscles. Along with this some skin is removed below the chin to have a pulling effect on the chin and leading to a smaller or less protruding chin.

Chin reductions do exist and are generally performed by oral surgeons but some plastic surgeons may have experience in doing them as well.
I’m guessing you may have better luck with the oral surgery community. Your best bet is to start calling around and start scheduling in person consultations.
During consultations do you want to get a good idea of how many of these procedures each provider has performed who you are considering.
Ask them to open up their portfolios of before and after pictures and see how many pictures they have. Being shown a handful of sample pictures which most likely represent the best results of their career is insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like or how many of these procedures the provider is actually performed.
For that reason I encourage patients to ask providers to open up their portfolio and show all or at least as many as they are willing to when it comes to before and after pictures.
Ask the provider to show different examples of excellent outcomes, average outcomes and less than outcomes. Talk specifically about revision rates and asked to see pictures of patients who had revisions in the past.
As with most procedures the key is finding someone who has experience and talent and can deliver consistent results.
Good luck,
