My mentolabial fold in particular is my biggest insecurity. I've often gotten comments about my mouth area looking like Homer Simpson. My chin area looks like it's dark from hyperpigmentation, but it's a shadow from my protruding lips. How do I fix this area? My chin is rather long, would adding filler/implant into the fold elongate it more? Would lip fillers exaggerate the fold more? Is a chin reduction necessary or would it ruin my face?

Hello, thank you for your question. It is hard to tell without proper photos, I would need photos from all angles. If you are considering surgery, I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.
Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from a chin augmentation, I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the procedure that is best for you.
There is definitely deficiency in the jaw and chin here. Your mid-face seem to be fine. You have two options:1. Either go through Invisalign and re-create the over bite, then have jaw advancement surgery or 2. Sliding genioplasty with down grafting.
