What procedure would be best to improve my chin and side profile? (Photos)

F-Early twenties. Im been very unhappy with how my chin and side profile appears in pictures. It sinks into the surrounding fat and completely flattens when my lips are closed. I had braces but my teeth have moved a little and are misaligned I dont know if this is the main problem or I just have a small jaw or chin? My chin doesnt cover any of the fat from under my chin and it worsens my double chin and makes me little bigger than I am. Im been trying to figure out what procedure would improve this? I was thinking an implant would help but Im afraid that it would make me look more masculine since I figure I will need a large. Ive tried to show how my teeth are and what my chin looks like in a neutral position and when Im smiling since my chin projects more when Im smiling in the pictures. Hope that was enough information and thank you for the help.

It appears that your chin projection in the horizontal plane is adequate. I would recommend a CT to determine if the vertical height is correct. In some cases of vertical excess, the chin height can be reduced, making it easier to bring the lips together. Overall, you have an attractive chin.

Based on your photos I notice that you have a small lower jaw and an obtuse Cerviomental angle (the angle between your chin and neck). This combination create the illusion of having no jaw line and "feeling like my neck skin directly connects to my chin". To address this I would recommend a...

Unfortunately, based on these photos it is impossible to give you good advice. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in facial implants is recommended. Good luck.
