Botched jawline liposuction - not happy with my results

Botched Jawline Liposuction
$3,000
It's been over 2 years since I got my surgery (chin implant, jaw liposuction bf buccal fat removal) and I can genuinely say I am not happy with my results and as such my insecurities about my jaw and neck have gotten worse. *Please see photo references* the liposuction that was done was not good. The doctor never mentioned any mistakes happening during surgery, in fact he didn't even visit me after I came out of surgery I didn't see him until the week follow up and even then he didn't say much. Just that the swelling would go down. I was naive and honestly thought the hole on the left side of my jaw would go away but it never did. Im honestly very upset with myself for letting the unprofessionalism slide.
Second, I had a chin implant placed as well (at least I think I did, since I can't see much of a difference in that aspect especially after the swelling went away). It's too small for me and doesn't make my side profile look any more defined then before, which is incredibly disappointing. Especially since the doctor said he would pick the size of the implant according to what he thought would suit my face and I trusted him. Which I shouldn't have because it doesn't suit me and I wish I could have spotted this red flag!!
I won't say much about my buccal fat removal other than I don't think about it much because most of my attention is on the hole in my jaw. And the fact that I still have a double chin. I wish I never picked this doctor and I wish I never had this surgery but sadly the damage has been done and there is no going back.
I am currently looking for a new doctor to try and correct the results but after this experience, it has been really hard to try and trust someone with my face again.I honestly can't even look in the mirror or even at side profile photos of myself. I really don't want to go back under the knife, so maybe Kybella will fix it, but who knows?
Don't go to this doctor! He doesn't care about his patients.
Surgery date was June 2020.

You don't look botched to me tbh, i think the surgeon did what he could with your results. I think jaw surgery would have been a better option for you because chin lipo and a chin implant sometimes isn't enough for some people. Do you have any current side profile pictures to get a better understanding of your results? Because i was also planning on getting surgery with him. Thanks!!
