Long face - can I shorten it with surgery? (Photos)

Question

I am almost 50 and I have always despised my long face. I have narrow lower face, prominent cheekbones and hollow infra-orbital and temporal areas. My lower face has significant volume loss that makes my face even longer and unattractive. I am interested in facial surgery to shorten my face and give me a youthful appearance. My forehead is also quite large. Retrospectively, I most likely had a subtle Bell's palsy on right.
