Do I have protruding mouth/teeth or recessed chin ? Should I get a V-line genioplasty?

Asked By:Sociable638091 in Lake Geneva, WI

I don't like the protruding look of my mouth and my profile. I always thought it was because of my teeth. Do I have dental biprotrusion or recessed chin ? Do I need extractions/braces or a genioplasty ? About a genioplasty, I am concerned, bc I have a pretty wide and long chin, and as a 20yo female, I want a small, pointy, projected chin. I am worried about the round u-shape of my chin, I wonder if I should get a T-osteotomy/V-line or just bone shaving. What is better to avoid skin sagging ?
