Some of us are born with a small chin, which can also be called a weak chin.

All of us have a sense of what a weak chin is, but it can be quantified better using something called Ricketts Esthetic line.  When a face is viewed in profile, a line drawn between the tip of the nose and the most forward point of the chin should be on the same plane as the most forward point of the lower lip. If the chin is behind that point, the medical condition is called micrognathia. Because beautyis about proportions, a small chin can also make a nose look larger.
