Is there a name for a jawline that looks like this? (photos)

Question

My jaw is very "C" shaped and almost looks like its floating off away from my face.

Jeffrey H. Spiegel, MD · Answer

Jaw contouring to be more v-shaped, less v-shaped, more tapered, smoother, etc can be done. We adjust the bone through the inside of your mouth. It takes about an hour though there is swelling for several weeks.

Prognathism is the medical term for your condition.
It can be treated with a chin reduction. This procedure is probably more commonly performed by oral surgeons, but some plastic surgeons may have experience shin reductions as well.
I suggest consulting with plastic surgeons and oral surgeons in your community.
Best,
