Uneven jaws after double jaw surgery. Is there anything I can do to fix this or help with the appearance? (photos)

March 24, 2019
Asked By:CJ2017

I had double jaw surgery/genioplasty and braces 6 years to to correct a overbite. As time goes by my jaws become even more uneven or Atleast more noticeable. When I put my lips together, they pull to one side and are uneven. Is there anything I can do to fix this or help with the appearance? I have a very bony cheek area with one side more noticeable as well as indents by jowls and a very pointy teardrop lower face I wish to address
