Did you have jaw implants with him? What do you make of his negative reviews?
I don't make anything of his negative reviews tbh. Every surgeon and company has negative outcomes, it's just part of things. I base my opinion on my own experience with him. He helped me tremendously and I was a very difficult case. I also found him to be an honest man and a perfectionist. Maybe he's not the easiest person to communicate with, but he's calm and composed. I was impressed by his technical skills and aestethic eye.
To elaborate further outside of Yaremchuk:
In my opinion a surgeon has superior aesthetic eye when he understands you need to stay within the range of normality when it comes to beauty. This, jn my opinion, is one of the key factors of beauty that I think has been highly misunderstood or overlooked by many surgeons (or they don't have the skills and subtility). Hence you can see how many botched nosejobs there are, for example.
In my opinion, there has been a highly flawed view on how to improve someone's looks. Facial harmony has been overlooked over the years, causing a bad name for plastic surgery as well. For example, you see all these beautiful women on Instagram with fake faces. I don't understand this. How's that an improvement? This is not how it's supposed to be and it has nothing to do with real beauty.
Facial harmony is not something that is completely measurable. You need to be an artist and feel it. While a surgeon can shorten a nose or reduce a nose technically, or a chin, or a jaw, or whatever, that doesn't mean it will fit the rest of the face.
When people feels miserable because of his or her face, they often think they are VERY far away from their ideal face. Many surgeons think the same it seems. Hence they do alot of grotesque procedures. The reality is, in most cases, a great outcome can be achieved by subtle changes.
Beauty is a matter of millimeters in most cases (not all cases). Also: many men want to look like a model. You don't need the facial structure of a model to look good. Sure, jaw is imo the most important feature when it comes to male beauty, and if it's somehow recessed you could improve it with a couple of millimeters. But do you really need a massive jaw? It depends from case to case of course.
Things are getting a bit out of hand lately. There is massive pressure to look good. There is also enormous hypergamy (it is simply true). But you don't have to look like a supermodel to make people appreciate your face. Just look NORMAL with some improvements. Don't go overboard.
Choose your surgeon carefully, but remember there is never a guarantee you made the right decision. But the most important: even if you had one or more botched jobs, it can be fixed in most cases. A botched job is fortunately in this time and age, not the end of everything.
I had seven botched jobs. It was a complete mess and I've been through hell and back. I look alright now. I don't want to be a supermodel (I never wanted to be one anyway).
Good luck everyone!
