Asked By:nasinha92 in New York, New York

Am I a candidate for a chin implant or is in my case a jaw surgery or just genioplasty more indicated? My bite is good (no over or underbite), I’ve had braces for years. I was hoping that also the drooping of my cheeks and jowls would be corrected my correcting my poor developed mandible and chin?
