How do I correct my protruding chin? (photos)

Asked By:caelinshea in Northern Cape, South Africa

Hi, I have consulted with orthodontists and maxillofacial surgeons, but no plastic surgeons as yet. Is there any procedure I can undergo to correct the shape of my chin? I believe it is just excess soft tissue that needs correction and not the actual chin bone itself. I don’t feel like braces will help? I have had braces previously and I was advised to get them again - I have a deep bite which may also be contributing towards the problem.
