A chin implant may be enough to create a significant improvement.  You will probably need a large or extra large.

They are appealing: quick surgery, cheap, outpatient management and veeery easy technical for the surgeon, even the less skilled and experienced can do them, however they have very bad downsides, in practical terms they have short duration due to pain, displacement, visibility, mobility, weird gestures, failing to achive goals, etc, and I mean this about silicone, medmore and any other material used for them.

You have microgenia, this is small bone developtment at the chin, therefore you need either sliding genioplasty or chin augmentation with bone supply (iliac grafting), unclear which one due to paucity of images and lack of X ray.
