I am suffering from a defect of my jaw called mandibular prognathism or Hasburg's jaw. Is there any way to cure this other than surgery.

You may opt for maxillofacial orthodontist with treatment of chincap which may improve your facial esthetics without surgery. But you must do timely treatment on urgent basis, since its already late to do non-surgical jaw correction.
