I’m unhappy with my genioplasty results. What should I do? My surgeon refuses to revise it (Photo)

Kel1998Sep 16, 2020
6 weeks ago I had genioplasty surgery to fix my weak chin, there was an 8mm forward movement and 3mm down movement. I feel like the 3mm down was a mistake and I’m really unhappy with my results, I feel like my face is now too long and my chin looks too big.
