1st off you don't look bad!  You can choose to get a chin implant put in if it's something that bothers you.  A side profile will better assist whether or not you are a good candidate for a chin implant.  Often a small amount of liposuction or a non-invasive procedure to help contour under the chin can improve the definition & refinement of your chin/neck structure.  This may be done alone or in combination with a chin implant, depending on what best suits the look you are going for, & what you are a candidate for.Best of luck.

A full set of pictures are  required, especially from the side profile before making a determination about chin implant placement. The mandible and chin implants are both three-dimensional structures, so an in person consultation and examination is usually required to determine the size, shape and manufacturer of the implant.

You need a profile picture to determine if your chin is receding. Try again with a side view.We need to see the chin in reference to your face on side view
