[meepmeepmeep]

I'm confused.. so no HA was used in your surgery?

ha wasn't used for the differential downgraft  of my maxilla, human bone was. For my mandible it was HA to booth elongate and widen the mandible at the gonial notches which he said he sanded down very carefully. He also rotated the ramus like quite around so the angle is now fierce and savage.

OP, why you didn't undergo modified LeFort3 in case it was indicated that with this approach you'd get best results?

you can't do bi-max and modified lefort 3 at the same time. my lefort 3 is schedule for 6 months post this op.

Do you honestly still feel the needs for a mod lefort 3 after what you've already gotten? Has it not done 'enough'?

No way man, I'm going for like this ultra bad-ass look like Jason statham and if you notice like Statham and a lot of really cool looking guys have the high and projected cheekbones. So I need a chin-wing and ZSO plus orbital rim advancement.

The lefort has been clinically very successful for me, but i'm not all that sure what kind of cosmetic different it really made other than giving me a lot of good teeth show and also being moved forward to really bring my lower jaw out.

Lazlo, I think you're gonna look good. Hang in there, focus on healing right now!

THanks bro! I'm honestly touched by your support. I will hang in there. And f**k if I need something more afer, no biggie. Life is a marathon, not a sprint.

I meant BDD is more prevalent than what I imagined.

Hate to see people planning more surgeries it makes my heart ache 

Love yourself man

[molestrip]

I meant BDD is more prevalent than what I imagined.

It is but Lazlo doesn't suffer from BDD. He just has high standards. I sympathize with the surgery conservatism but then I'm at the other end of the spectrum, which is also not wonderful. To be fair, I think the midface deficiency will cause problems down the line too with the eyes and some surgery will be needed at that point.

So I need  ZSO plus orbital rim advancement.

Are these procedures as invasive as double jaw surgery?  What is the recovery like?  Any risk of going blind or nerve damage?

nah they're probably less invasive given that they don't target important functional areas like your jaw joings and stuff.

Congrats on finally getting the surgery.  It seems like quite a lot to do on a non-syndrome patient (once you get the LF3 and all that), was your face kind of deformed before?  Or did he agree to do it strictly for cosmetic purposes?
Also, could you elaborate on the V-Y plasty? I've never heard of that being done in combination with jaw surgery before.  Was it solely to combat the chimp look or something else?
Glad your recovery is going so well
Edit: Just saw your other thread... Hope it gets better
