I want to reduce a prominent chin, what type of surgeon do I need to see and what type of procedure? (Photo)

October 20, 2018

I’m in the process of scheduling a consultation and procedure to reduce my prominent chin. However, I am having a hard time knowing who will do the best job with my face. Should I meet with a board certified plastic surgeon, board certified facial plastic surgeon, or an oral and maxillofacial plastic surgeon? Who would be the most experienced with this procedure? What technique would be best? And how long does recovery take?
