I have a really bad side profile, my chin sticks out and my nose sticks out, what surgeries (if any) can I get to sort this out?

Question

Lucian Ion, FRCS · Answer

I would suggest to begin the discussion with a maxillofacial surgeon and evaluate the skeletal relationship of the upper jaw, forehead and mandible.

My impression is that the upper jaw is a little bit recessed but it may be the effect of how the photograph is cropped.

If the balance of the occlusion and mandibular development are good, and chin reduction would be possible and can be combined with a slight tip rotation and increased projection at the radix.

This would help to create the impression that the middle third of the face is slightly more advanced

And evaluation of the shape of the forehead in its entirety would be important as part of this decision

Samir Shureih, MD · Answer

Evaluation for the need of rhinoplasty is based on looking at the entire face and the harmony of the nose to the face.
The picture is inadequate for any evaluation.
Best to get a personal consult
