Now let me tell you he showed me one patient —not Earl, but someone more recent who had the “modified lefort-3” yes there was a difference but it just resembled a weak ZSO to me. In fact, when I studied the before and after profiles there was no significant augmentation to the area directly beneath the eye and this was not as augmented as when I see Dr. Yaremchuck’s examples of orbital rim implants with “canthopexy” no Sir, not even close. Honestly from the example of the modified lefort 3 I saw this procedure is not the holy grail to your looks as many of you have been assuming I’m very sorry to report and I don’t think it can do a lot at all. You’re like to get a much more dramatic result from a genioplasty to your appearance. The problem I think rests in the facts that the movement isn’t that much AND you’re limited by your own anatomy. If you don’t have large bones they’re not gonna show very well.
Lazlo is absolutely right! A mod. Lefort III does not improve your eye area since the eye supporting part of the bone is not touched.
Unfortunately there are no very effective zygo/cheekbone surgeries. The difference in the amount of bone mass in a male model's zygos vs an average guy is just enormous and can't be bridged with modern surgery.
But I do not think that Zygo surgery is s**t.
So what are your options???
I did a lot of research. I do not like implants (medpor/silicon). I prefer osteotomies because they are more natural. But the problem with most of osteotomies is that it is very difficult to find an appropriate surgeon who is willing to do this for you if you are not malformed. And imo a mod. Lefort III is insane.
At the end i think the best option is a Zso AND BIO OSS IN ADDITION. It is described as a safe and fast surgery. A Zso gives you lateral and also a little bit forward projection.
OR PLEASE TELL ME WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK IS THE BEST OPTION? There are drawbacks to everything it seems.
Another thing: Some feminine features on men aren't necessarily bad. In fact they can be very alluring. And there is literally no difference between "masculine" and "feminine" cheekbones. Cheekbones are cheekbones.
