What surgeries do I need to get to have a shorter, more feminine and balanced face?

I just recently turned 18 and I have a long face. I'm a cis woman, and when I was younger, people would ask me if I was a boy and it used to really hurt my self esteem. I have pics attached, including one where I have my hands over the parts of my jaw that I wish weren't there/ masculinize my face and a picture of a woman with a chin shape I think is lovely.
