I'm scheduled for Lefort 1, bilateral sagittal split osteotomes of mandible, and osteotomy and reshaping of chin for April.
My biggest concern right now is the chin. My surgeon wants to lengthen the chin. This was very counterintuitive for me since I've always hated how prominent and pointy my chin appeared in contrast to my underground jaws. Looking through some of these similar patients, I have to say that I"m not a big fan of some of the chin outcomes.

I don't know the language to describe it - but chin/jaw overall feels too wide to be ideal.
The third one, the brunette with a sort of classical renaissance aesthetic, I felt like had the worst outcome. I'd want to go get that chin narrowed immediately, shaving off the two edges. Many aspects of her face look better, but I almost think she looked better before, and it's just because of her chin.
The fourth woman, brunette with a cute/young looking face is the one whose ceph my surgeon thought most closely matched mine. Again, an improvement but the chin feels weird.
In short, I'm scared of having a chin aesthetic/outcome I don't like and don't know how to communicate to my doc what I do want in this area.
Though I love this women 's chin - it is longer but I think I love it because it's angled.
