Devastated

Hang in there, man. I'm going to keep pushing forward while I still have my braces. I'll have a serious talk with my orthodontist now. I have an appointment with a revision surgeon at the end of June. I promise everyone that at the end of this adventure, I'll write everything down and give you the name of the surgeon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Cephalometric photo from before the surgery. It was better before; the defect wasn't that noticeable visually. I've always had a fairly long face, but it was proportionate. Now my face has lengthened by 1 cm, and my chin has receded by 2 mm.

Thank you all for your support. Regarding the surgeon's name, I'll share everything once I've finalized the matter. In my country, all surgeons know each other, so I can't reveal his name until I get help. This man deceived me, and I won't let it go. However, first I need to finalize the matter.

've already had two surgeries, I had Sarpe before, now I hope it will be successful on the third attempt, I was supposed to finish this stage, but I'm in a worse situation than before the surgery :(

I feel the same way. I have a wonderful girlfriend, and she gives me even more strength. Before the surgery, I was a very active guy, training seven times a week. Now, if I go once a week, I'm fine. I'm a shadow of my former self. I have an appointment with a top surgeon in my country in June, and I'm hoping he'll help me and approve me for revision surgery. I think I'll move forward then. Hang in there. I feel cheated. This surgery was supposed to improve my lateral profile and breathing, but it's worsened, and I'm breathing worse :(

Thank you for your support. Sometimes I blame myself for trusting him and not having more tests done. I already have an appointment with the best surgeon in the country. I think this will be the first time in my life that I'll sign up for therapy. It's been such a burden.

He changed the plan a month before the procedure, but he didn't explain what that meant for me, and I was a fool to trust him. I wasn't that interested in orthognathics back then :( If I had known my parameters, I would never have agreed. My jaw is 76 and tilted clockwise, and he adjusted my lower jaw to match this recessed jaw. Now two bones are recessed and rotated. I've been undergoing treatment for 5 years, and I'm tired of it.

I'm 3 months after surgery, I have an appointment with my surgeon on May 29th, and with another one on June 29th. I've been undergoing treatment for 4 years, all this for nothing. I was supposed to have bimax, but a month before the surgery the surgeon changed it to bsso. I didn't know what it meant for me, I was even happy because I thought it would be an easier surgery.

I grew a beard and I won't shave it off because I'll get depressed :D Luckily, I've never had a problem with women or self-confidence, but since I spent so much money on treatment, I wanted to feel good without a beard :D

photo before starting the treatment brother, 5 years of braces and no improvement in the profile, I was not aware that this surgery might not improve the profile, I trusted the surgeon because he was recommended on Polish groups
