I UPDATED MY POSTS, THAT MY EYE IS NOT SUNKEN. AESTHETICALLY THE BONE IS SET QUITE OK or even PERFECT, who knows too early !
That time, I judged too early (2 week after surgery). Now it's 7 weeks.
Of course you can get sunken eye after such surgey if a surgeon is not enough experienced
You have to choose surgeon who is experienced in orbitozygomatic area.
My surgeon performes corrections after bad healed fracture and after botched surgeries
He performes CAS (computer assisted surgery) He takes many reference points, and on the computer he move the bones as he wants.
During surgery he checks new position based on selected reference points. That gives more predictible results
He has not damaged any nerve. I mean only one but because i needed decompression, so the surgery was performed near that nerve and was stretched. You do not need cuts crossing any nerve
Moreover i;m not gonna have any foreign object. My surgeon likes to remove miniplates after a few months post op.
However my masseter muscle still has not adjusted to new position. I'm gonna discuss about this with my surgeon in next week.
THAT KIND OF SURGERY IS LITTLE TRICKY BUT AT THE SAME TIME GIVES THE BEST RESULTS. IT'S THE MOST PROFESSIONAL OPTION
AND ALSO FULL ZO OSTEOTOMY IS NOT SO CLOSE TO LF3 AS I THOUGHT. IT'S LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED
I CAN SAY I HAD THE MOST DIFFICULT SURGERY ON THIS FORUM
Zygoma bone is the most difficult to set, This is part of orbit, many muscles are connected to the zygoma and there is the largest number of imprtant nerves. Moreover it's tiny line between good and bad result. This is why most max-fac surgeons won't do Zygomatic (full complex) osteotomy on you
About author post, it's that because you didn't have zygomatic bone osteotomy, what you had is 1/3 - 1/2 of cheek osteotomy.. some sandwiches and other bulls**ts
Here you have my results:
before: [overlooked fracture]
after:
It won't give you full picture... but something
i even believe i'm little too symmetric. The bone was moved about 5mm , now i believe slight beter would be 4mm
i used not t be symmetric , even before fracture
i'm not overcorrected.. but i think 1mm less would be better comparing to my old photos. but it;s still too early to judge. What I know it's for sure between good and perfect. I can judge better much later.
I had consultation with Z. He told me full osteotomy is too dangerous, I may get persistent diploplia and other things., that simple surgeries are more predictible.
So now I see the opposite effect. Mine more complicated surgery was more predictible, and I did not have even temporary diploplia
but I can get full information after few months. I have to wait how my masseter muscle is gonna work a few months later
If muscles connected to jaw do not work properly then you can get TMJ disorder. My joint now is overloaded.
I will put some more info many weeks later
Interesting is fact that my surgeon has 0 opinions on the Internet, and Z. a lot good ones. Both are from Eest Germany
HOWEVER I do not recommend such surgery if your aesthetic problem is minor. for example if you need only 2mm od advancement. Too big surgery for such minor changes
