How much chin bone can be shaved?

Asked By:Straightforward5419 in Jacksonville, Florida

Had chin shaving done three months ago. No noticeable change. He told me he took 4 mm. I asked if he can do it over and he said maybe but you can't really take much if any more. I read that you can take up to 1 cm safely. Can someone shed some light as why would I go thru a procedure that would not be noticeable!
