What surgeries do I need, from frontal view?
« on: June 29, 2017, 12:35:29 PM »
And, what procedures could help to reduce the anterior facial height and sclera show?

I did not have sclera show until bad orthodontics and my face colapsed.  Now I am not sure what to do in order to fix the elongated face.   I have no a terrible gum exposure yet still I have: lip incompetence at rest, sclera show at rest, extremely elongated face, no infraorbital support at all, and steep occlusal plane. Chin retruded.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Can someone tell me what is this scleral show OP and others talk about in cases like his?  Like the whites on the sides aren't natural?? I thought scleral show issues came from the whites appearing under the iris or an excessive 'sag' to the sides, which appear non existent or very mild in OP's case IMO.

I was squinting at that pic. Usually I have sclera show at rest. Very mild, yet still before I had zero sclera show at all, now my eyes looks colapsed. 

Still... any sugestions about what could help in order to decrease the anterior facial height?

yeah your situation is similar to mine. I think jaw surgery would f**k you up actually but a  lefort 3 might help. Your eyes are fine. I'd go for the lefort 3 with Sinn.

I am making a conscious muscular effort to keep my eye area looks not that off in that photo. I did not take the photo for showing here.  You can cleary appreciate that the midface is absolutely colapsed and with zero infraorbital support.  If I keep relaxed my eyes display mild sclera exposure and upper eyelid exposure too

would you mind elaborating a bit on why jaw surgery could f**k you even more?
lefort III seems scary as hell but...will look into for before afters

So why not post photos that show your problems if you want help?

Zygomatic osteotomy, or implants that go on the zygomatic arch will widen your face and make the mid face appear shorter.

That projection is too damn low.

I have heard zso is being performed with higher mobilization. I am vesting a lot of hope in this.
