I'm sorry I can't see a difference between them. How much movement is your doctor telling you that you can get?

I haven't been to a surgeon yet and before I do I want to have some realistic morphs to show him. You honestly can't tell the difference?
Both pictures contain a morph and I'm guessing this would be around a 7-10mm movement.

This morph is here is roughly 10mm

I will take clearer pictures without a beard when it's closer to my consultation.

The only difference I see is your chin sloping downward more :o what kind of result are you looking for?

Honestly, you look absolutely fine...I see minimal difference. Genioplasty is no walk in the park and there are risks and complications.

From an outside POV you look attractive and normal to me. I don't think you need such a drastic surgery, but in the end its up to you. Just make sure you find a reputable maxillofacial surgeon.
