I am a F30, 155cm and 39.463 kg woman. I think I have a recessed chin (thought don't know how recessed it is) and would like to get plastic surgery for it. I've previously had braces and do not know of any major jaw issues. I'm a bit worried about bone erosion too. Which one might suit me more?

Answer: Chin augmentation, possibly rhinoplasty There is no doubt that chin augmentation with implant or genioplasty, no difference in your case, would create more balance. You may consider a rhinoplasty as well, since those two are very frequently performed together to improve facial harmony. Good luck.

Answer: Recessed chin, chin, implant, or genioplasty A genioplasty is usually performed by Oral Surgeon under General anesthesia in a hospital setting with an overnight stay in the hospital, and it's much more invasive. It's usually performed when your teeth are significantly out of alignment. Placement of a chin implant can be performed under local anesthesia in the office setting where you could walk in and walk out in about 30 minutes. Bone remodeling is very slight, and we've never seen it be an issue in over 30 years.
