Question

My mouth doesn't lie flat on my face and sticks out further than my chin, also there is a dimple between where my chin finishes and my mouth starts, is there any procedure that can make my mouth level with my chin like angelica jolie? thanks

Hi Ollie,In general, the issue you describe can be adressed using chin implants to push the chin forward and provide better harnomy of the profile. I can't tell from you photos, but if you are under the age of 22/23, there is likely to be continued growth of the mandible or jaw until that age.Other options may be required if you teeth do not align correctly. A consultation would likely help you to determine which of these pathways is best for you.

You must first start with an X-ray to evaluate the angle of your front teeth. This might be one of the caused that your lips are pushed forward. The second reason might be that your upper jaw is grown too much in a forward direction.

Yes, a chin implant would give your chin projection to balance the lower face.  The chin should be closely linedwith your lips if you hold a finger down in front of your lips.  Yours is recessed and an implant will bring it forward.

A chin implant or advancement genioplasty should improve your profile.  The deep mentolabial crease could be improved with fillers or cadaver bone graft with the genioplasty.  Donald R. Nunn MD, DDS  Atlanta Plastic Surgeon.
