Many of the books that talk about classic proportions of the face describe
how strong the chin should be. Here's the guideline most books mention: on
the profile view, find the lowest point on the lower lip where you would place
lipstick. Draw a line vertically
down from that point. The chin should come forward to touch that line.
However, guidelines are just guidelines. Put a ruler on your computer
screen, and you'll see that, even in the after picture, her chin doesn't come
forward to
that theoretical line. And we would not want to make her chin any stronger
than it already is. Often, the best surgical plan is to attempt a good improvement,
and not strive for some generalized goal that might not work on everyone.

Questioner:
Please Could You Tell Me What They Can Do to my Nose to Make It Look Smaller. Would It Look Stupid?
I need it smaller asap :( (Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: Reduce the hump, and bring the nose back closer to your face
Hi, From your photo, you seem to be a reasonable candidate for a rhinoplasty. See my "Web reference" link for a morph I made of your nose. I brought the tip of your nose back closer to your face, and reduced the hump. I can't really tell from your photos here, but you may also have strong tip cartilages, and the tip could possibly be reduced in width.
