Title: Is this a real result?
Post by: eastcoastian1 on May 31, 2020, 12:12:41 PM: Look at the profile view. Her ramus has been elongated like 10x over. Is this real or photoshopped?

Post by: Post bimax on June 01, 2020, 08:19:51 AM: I think she got ANS shaving for the nose tether, but it was too much on her and surgeon failed to compensate by lifting the tip via another technique. I don't know much about rhinoplasty though.

Either way, the perceived ratio of her ramus (vertical) to mandible (horizontal) is disconcerting.

Correct. +1 This has to do with the other posts I made where I singled out prominent ANS problem and told the posters that their circumstance was an exception to the general rule to get a rhino after max advancement/bimax and due to that to have the rhino first. Here, the maxfax doc reduced the ANS but was not conversant in the OTHER rhino techniques needed to go WITH an ANS reduction. In those posts, someone else comes along and just parrots the general rule of not getting the rhino first and the reasoning given for the EXCEPTION to it is a 'TLDR' matter for them.

By the way, I withheld the answer because I had confidence you would eventually come up with it.
