How can I fix this witch's chin? (Photos)

December 8, 2016
Asked By:ugh1 in Sayville, NY

I have what people consider a "witch's chin" and it makes me extremely insecure. It ruins my smile, profile, and shape of my face. I don't know why it creases like that, it didn't have it when I was younger. Also I am quite thin and it makes me look like there's more fat under my chin.
