Can a sliding genioplasty reduce the vertical height of my chin and create more of a point? (Photo)

June 27, 2016
Asked By:TiffanySin in Houston, TX

I spent 3k on a chin implant and suffered from 5 months of depression- got it removed after 6! I do not what a large chin after the surgery again, but I want a feminine chin. If the chin is shortened and shaped pointy, then the swelling shouldn't be too noticeable? How much does this cost? Would a surgeon consider negotiating a price? I'm 5'9, cis female, but I have a larger nose and chin (I want to reduce both).
