Hi Kavan, thanks for weighing in. I have a few follow up's if you don't mind:
1: Re: "DJS + BSSO": DJS is Double Jaw Surgery. DJS= BSSO + Lefort (to maxilla) and often with genio. So, someone doesn't have "DJS + BSSO". They have DJS + (maybe) a genio with it.
1. Noted and thanks for the correction.
2: The MORPH shown here isn't actually an OUTCOME of any surgeries/procedures done on the person. It's an outcome of MOVING PIXELS. There is NO WAY of knowing that the morph shown here is actually even a predictor of what the morpher thinks it predicts. So, it isn't a prediction either of an outcome you could possibly get based on nothing more than someone moving pixels on ANOTHER person's photo.
2. Yep, you can disregard that. In hindsight I could've probably omitted the morph and kept the text section just to see if the movements sounded plausible, without the morph as a distraction to that question.
3: The creator of the YT channel you linked to seems very knowledgeable about MSE and MSDO. He offers individual video consults. Maybe look into that to get his take on your candidacy for those things.
3. Will do.
4: A 'T section' genio is a genio that widens the chin. A horizontal cut is made across the bottom of chin and a vertical cut down the middle. The bottom of the chin is then separated into 2 parts and a bone graft is used in-between to WIDEN the chin. It does not put any stress on the condyles because it is not aimed at expanding the entire mandible, ONLY the chin.
4. Are there any drawbacks/'contraindications' to this 'T section' genio? I've never heard of it before but that's more likely due to my own ignorance still; I'm also am curious if getting this type of genio would prevent me from getting any other chin or jaw work done afterward if necessary (hopefully only one surgery needed, but just curious for a worst case)? Also wondering if you have any names of surgeons that do this movement, or if it's really not that special of an augmentation and virtually any [big name] surgeon would both be capable and willing to do it.
5: Implants can widen the entire ARC of the lower face; chin and mandible.
5. Can you share your stance on implants (for mandible/chin)? That is, whether you believe in some cases they are comparably viable to moving bone? Or if they're always going to be notably an inferior option. And also, if there's a material you'd suggest for implants (i.e. titanium vs silicone).
Thanks!
