Had this surgery done, the recovery was brutal but the results are amazing.

I had this surgery almost 7 years ago, and it completely changed my face for the better. I did however lose all sensation in the right side of my face, from my cheekbone down it's completely numb, lips and chin too. For anyone having this surgery, please understand this happening is very rare, I was just unlucky, and have since adapted to it :)

Wow!! Doctor are seriously an extension of God!!! Incredible!

Thank you Sara Egner for the beautiful animation!

Pain isn't a reason to back out. If you have trusted surgeons that do good work, get it done. I am 26 and I regret not having it done as a teen, I need to save more money but I will get it done before 30.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm schedule for both procedures on Nov. 2nd. It was great to read the comments from people who have had this surgery.

Had this surgery done and now my profile is awesome!!!

Jaw surgeries can bring amazing results in experienced hands.👏👏

1:58 when you have to smile to people you don't like

I did this operation about a week and a half ago and the swelling is already almost gone, feeling is returning and everything is better. I don't know what people are whining about but if you have bite issues/self esteem/ sleep apnea whatever then just do it. Caveat is make sure you have a good surgeon who's done many of them prior. Don't go to some South Korean chop shop is all.

Once in a while I watch these animations and feel awfully better about myself

great informative video of how it works!

BSSO used for elongation of mandible to put patient into skeletal class 1 instead of class 2. Need ortho before and after. bone is separated bilaterally pulled forward and teeth are put in proper order. Plates and screws are put and jaw is fixed.

It really worth it! I'm 2 weeks post op and still a bite swollen but i can tell that it will look much better than t was before. I had no pain at all... the swollen feelling was really annoying but thats it.

Dr. Mario Llop. Plastic Surgeon. Spain Congratulations! This video offers a very clear understanding of the procedure. And congratulations to Dr Pravin Pattel, for the councelling, who I had the oportunity to meet at UCLA.

Thank you!

thanks sarah ...this video helps alot

very helpful , thank you

hi, essentially for people who have a skeletal Class III malocclusion, BSSO is also employed to retract the lower jaw. So it's really the same procedure, but depending on the starting skeletal relationship, it is either advanced or retracted. Hope this helps= )

This is a great video. Well done

for my boy leafy

I just recently got this surgery, the week before the recovery is hard, but will power, and determination makes it bearable.

Looks like a super delicate surgery 😳 I had braces like 10 years ago and they recommended this but my parents didn’t consent at that time and I’m thankful cause I now see how risky it is. I’ll just get a chin implant and fillers for my mentolabial to fix my side profile, seems safer.

I had this exact surgery in 2003. I guess my surgeon wasn't very careful with those nerves. Lol i lost certain feeling in my face for yeeeeaaars.. but bow 15 years later it has repaired itself. Just a very slow process regaining sensation o n my cheeks... From what I remember, the surgery was extremely difficult. Granted I was only 16 at the time. But, if I coukd go back I would definitely do it all over again. I was doing acting and modeling at the time and already having dominant features, high cheekbones, and a strong jaw. The surgery helped my profile tremendously, giving a much more prominent jawline, and did help my self esteem. Having a dominant nose when your chin is pulled back slightly makes your nose appear muchb larger. Lol I believe the adjustment was only a few millimeters, but it definitely made a vast difference in appearance. Now, to this day at 32 years old I still get a lot of compliments on my features, being compared to certain celebrities like johnny depp, heath ledger, and others that have dominant facial features.

Thank you very much

I’m looking to get this done when I return to the us

thanks 👍

Great video..thank you

amazing

avice01 i love you for uploading this

Getting ready to have this and I'm freaking out

Looks like a character in oblivion

THANK U

Just had the surgery on Nov. 2nd. It really isn't that bad--not really painful. The worst part for me was that I kept biting the inside of my cheeks. My chin and lower lip are still numb--very annoying! So glad I did it. It has eliminated my sleep apnea.

I had this exact surgery done to me in 2004 with great results. I would do it all over again if I had to.

wow such a long time wearing braces :o but if you're happy now and look even more gorgeous then it was totally worth it :)

I ll have to go through this ...soon

i had this.its worth it.

Looks like fun

Yes it's been 1 year that i have my braces and the surgery went really well! I still look myself but it just looks better :) It really worth it to do this surgery and the first 5 days is the worst (but not THAT worst) :P

Is this a trimax if it's with a lefort 1?

Bilateral saggital split osteotomy used for Skeletal class 2 malocclusion ..to advance mandible .

i would still like to see the bone recovery in this case and would like to know if the screws ever get removed or not.

Yeah

Good morning, I have a question, I hope you can answer it: I had a gummy smile, I showed a lot of my gum and three weeks ago they cut it by orthographic surgery, they also did a mentoplasty; before the surgery I could not close my lips in a natural way since my upper lip could not cover my teeth along my maxilla, now after surgery I can not close my lips even though they took 6mm of my jaw, I do not know if it will be because I still have to give time to the muscles of my face because I still have my bozo and my upper lip asleep, my question is: do you think that with time I can close my lips naturally? THANKS IN ADVANCE!

I'm in Canada. The BSSO is about CAN $5000, and to get the genioplasty with it is an additional CAN $500. I'm thinking if you got the genioplasty alone it would be about $1000-2000 though.

if the screw does not come out one will Be screwed lol

I have a question deer .. how long the time .. from begain this surgery until finish the treament .. and get final result ??

im going to do this type of surgey , hope it goes alright like this

this is insane. knowing what doctors are able to do... they could just take your entire lower row of teeth out! that’s really unsettling

Good wrk

How come his alveolar nerve and vessels will not be hurt by pulling out the jaw??

im about to do it but im so scared my nerve is gonna be damaged forever , so i couldn't ever feel a kiss with a girl anymore and have the weird feeling forever

thank you for replying What province are you in? I live in Ontario.

I had this done a week and a half ago. Almost able to eat solid food (toast etc)

I wonder if this can also help tmj in addition to a receding jaw?

Please do a video on class 3 malocclusion 😅

Marneuliiii

Excellent work .. very informative from dentist point of view :) ;)

Had this done exactly 2 weeks ago. It's more uncomfortable after then pain

very nich informision

I just got double jaw surgery 2 weeks ago, hoping it’s all worth it.

Hey pippynjune. how much is Upper jaw surgery in CAN and how much will the suregon fees be?

Hello, i have got 4 extractions and have gaps, my question is do the gaps have to be totally closed before i can have BSSO surgery? (I have an overbite and im an adult)

I just had this done im now 3 weeks post op. If your surgeon recomned u getting jaw surgery seriously get it done. It is well worth it and if u dnt ur just question urself with what if i did it how would i look.

How can you guarantee that nerves wont get damaged? Thats serious

The metal pieces are taken later or are they forever?

After the total completion of the procedure, including the post-surgery braces, how well do the teeth line up? If my lower front teeth were directly under my upper front teeth, the other teeth would have to be raised, not just moved laterally. Can that happen? Can gums grow under as well as around, if teeth are coaxed upwards with braces? I looked into this 15 years ago and was told that the teeth would no longer really line up as well - and that I'd have to get my lower back teeth removed (my wisdoms are already gone) in order for the surgeon to have room to work. So my lower jaw would be extended, giving more room, but having teeth removed to do it. That kinda sucks. Also, I was told a permanent retainer would be left in, otherwise the teeth would eventually migrate back - which sounds to me difficult to clean (floss) around. Is that what other folks found?

Ive done this surgery 8 months ago my nerve got damaged the side where the nerve is damaged is weak also hard to talk very tight and it looks unrecovered

Where in uk is clinic to do this???

one doubt i did bsso 3 years ago but untill lower jaw sensation do not recover.it is any nerve problem?

Dr Sunil Richardson should watch this video to learn how to avoid nerve damage. He usually cuts the bone completely (separating both sides) along with the nerve and all his patients end up losing sensation in their face and mouth.

I'm in BC, things tend to be expensive out here.

My question is, how can I get at least 3 to 4 inch larger lower facial part including chin & jaw than before?

Just had this done I’m on recovery day 2

i whould like to undergo the surgery and le fort 1

And donnot try to chew drink ensure from from straw

Hii.. i just got the surgery done yesterday.. and i can say that I'm fine.. as this is just the previous day of my surgery swelling is there, and pain?! ntng at all... your doctors will give general anesthesia while doing the surgery and you won't feel anything. and little numbness would be there for some 3 to 5 weeks.. and it isn't that bad.. for two days you need to have soft and liquid diet. swelling will go in 1week. no fears at all..!! :-) :-) am good inspite havin surgery yest,

Oh boy this really is scary :/

I had this 6 years ago. Still my chin is numb and no sensations. I didn’t do the final chin surgery as I wanted to grow my beard instead. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Is it worth the price? Depends on you

I need help to bring forward my chin bone

Ah fuck, im gonna hate this... Very informative though :)

The face looks like the starting breton woman in Oblivion

For improving small mandible and recessed chin issues, can someone please elaborate on BSSO vs Mandibular Distraction Osteogenesis? And their pros and cons?

Hello .. l want to do surgery .. but there is 2 reason .. because i afraid it's high risk .. and its very expensive ... l hope that my god help me to do it ..

Do the screw come out once the bone is healed ???

your lucation wich contry

When does the screws come out?

I'm on my phone so I hope this replies to you! I had SARPE for my upper jaw. It was $1500 CAN.

I want asked about how long pain and recovery ? And after this surgery the jaw weak or that get like a normal person > sorry about my English

That looks like Anfisa from 90 Day Fiance. She needs this procedure.

i need plastic surgry

All the wounds have healed, just the odd ache and pain, chin/lip still numb, although feeling is coming back more and more each day. Doctor said it should be all good in a few months.

#nochin
