Double chin and square jaw from braces and TMJ. Would a chin implant help? (Photo)

LexiLe
I need guidance on what direction to take. I am in my 20s. Double chins run in the family. Braces at an early age caused my jaw to be pushed back. The dentist also told me I have TMJ with muscle and bone growth causing my square jaw and facial asymmetry. No matter how much weight I lose, my face will always look chubby. I'm also getting slight marionette lines from lower chubby cheeks. Would you suggest a chin implant? Botox in the masseter muscles? Lipo?
