Why does my head shape look masculine?

Question

I'm a female and I think I have a very masculine looking head shape. Would a Jaw reduction be an option for me in order to look more feminine? And also why are my cheeks asymmetrical? Is the asymmetry noticeable and how can i get a more symmetrical face? I'm 20 years old and my cheeks have been sagging for a long time. What is the cause of this? Could it possibly be related to my recessed chin? Furthermore, my face always looks very chubby regardless of skinny I am. What is the explanation for this?
