Sliding Genioplasty Has Left my Face Too Narrow Can It Be Corrected?

molly3
I had sliding genioplasty 5 weeks ago to correct a receding chin and short jaw. My profile is now wonderfully improved. However my face, face-on is now too narrow and a different shape and my chin too pointy. It doesn't suit the rest of my facial features and I do not look like me. What could be done to correct this please?
