I've never heard a native English speaker say "You are lovely in profile". You have a lovely profile, maybe.

I could imagine a photographer saying that to a model in English. Many Continental European languages use "have" to describe personal qualities though.

Is this supposed to be a compliment? Cause it sort of implies that from other angles you are less than beautiful.

No, in profile is a term mostly used in art. It means 'from the side'. Usually this is in reference to someone's face seen from the side. (google search for 'en profil' if you want more visual references)
