Will premolar extractions suit my facial profile? (Photos)

Asked By:Honest4354 in Mililani, Hawaii

My teeth flaring is dramatic looking at it from an xray and I was told that in order to make space, extractions is the best route. However, I'm worried of what extraction of 4 premolars might do to my facial profile. While I don't want the protrusion going on on my lips, I also definitely don't want a sunken face. I just want insight as to whether you think a smaller smile would suit my facial profile.
