I am very skinny so why does my jawline disappear into my neck? (Photo)

Christmas54331
I’m always bothered by the fact that in photos my jawline seems to easily disappear into my neck and my neck attaches to my chin at a rather upward angle instead of more straight. Why does it do this and what can I do to change it? Would a sliding genioplasty help with my jaw and not just my chin or is there something else that would be a better solution? I am 26 years old.
