After double jaw surgery + genio my face is strikingly much longer to the point it really bothers me. I was a class ii and steep occlusal plane case. My surgeon did a posterior downgraft only, no impaction which in hindsight was a mistake. I believe my front incisors were lowered 1mm due to the natural advancement plane. Now, at nearly 6 months post OP and still in braces - half of my teeth show at rest, and a large smile shows 1mm of gum above front incisors. This would be fine if I was female, or someone with a short upper lip. However I may be in the minority (especially if in the company of maxfacs), being of the belief optimal aesthetics for a male with a long philtrum like myself is little if any teeth show at rest. It would certainly solve my issues, in addition to my maxillomandibular complex moving back a couple of mm to reintroduce harmony with the rest of my features. My genio was done poorly, I would like a few mm of chin height gone as well.
I'm wondering if anyone has done a revision bimax after a good functional result? Are there surgeons who would agree to operate on me? Is the risk of permanent numbness a real risk to consider with revisions? I'm not over-advanced like those horror cases you occasionally read about, and had a solid orthodontic outcome. Simply my face just looks off and I want it fixed.
