Chin augmentation should improve your appearance by projecting the chin and extending your neck forward. Your chin should not extend all the way to your nose, but more to the level of your lips. Extending the chin to the nose would make it look over projected.
It is possible to improve the appearance of the profile with a chin implant. I would recommend an in-person consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. He or she may use computer imaging software to morph a photo of you, which will give you an idea of how the final result of surgery may appear. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
A chin implant will help with the projection and will help to create the illusion of a longer jaw. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of chin implants and facial procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Since you appear to be fairly young, another consideration. depending on the way your teeth come together and how much surgical investment and recovery you are able to take on, might be jaw advancement surgery to reset your jaw more forward. Best of luck. Dr. H
