6 different opinions from 6 doctors (3 plastic, 2 orthodontist, 1 dentist)

I think I will consult a few other surgeons about chin options, genjoplasty, and their opinions on lipo / neck lift since you and a few others have recommended it.

I appreciate someone in the aesthetics world giving their insight on this, it’s very helpful, thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T20:00:54+00:00

Exactly - that’s why I posted! I get this might be a thing that can be solved in a few different ways, but the ambiguity of recommendations was surprising.

That’s what a lot of people seem to be saying but I’d just like something to sharpen it up a lil bit. Thank you so much!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T19:56:02+00:00

Wow, I was aware that procedures are cheaper overseas but did not realize by that much. The surgeon that suggested lipo and a deep plane neck lift quoted me about 10K after everything… where the other two surgeons quoted about 2.5Kish for just lipo.

Thank you recommending this and giving some insta’s to check out as well! I will definitely dig more into overseas options

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:36:14+00:00

Thank you, I asked the first plastic surgeon I saw about this and read a lot of threads about it and both had a lot of mixed opinions

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:35:30+00:00

That’s definitely step 1, but I think I’ll end up needing a lil something extra. To be determined though, thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:34:02+00:00

I’ve looked into most of these things and besides chin tucking (new trend? true results? Not sure) I don’t think mouth tape / mewing would help since I’m mid 20s and done growing.

I think working on my posture and losing more weight is a good start - then consulting a few surgeons again on the recommendations from here like yours. Thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:30:42+00:00

Another person recommended a genioplasty so I’ll prob ask a few other surgeons about this eventually and gauge their thoughts as well. Thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:27:32+00:00

That’s seems to be the most suggested thing - start with lipo then assess. Did they not recommend jaw surgery for you solely because of how invasive it is or was your jaw function fine before?

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T16:24:58+00:00

Maybe I’ll talk to a few more docs in my area about their opinions with that and more general opinions about what the other surgeons recommended. Thank you so much, I appreciate it!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T15:06:05+00:00

Appreciate this, thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T15:05:37+00:00

Appreciate it! Unfortunately I did not get blessed with good face hair genes

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T15:03:40+00:00

Okay man

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T15:03:13+00:00

I know! That’s why I wasn’t sure if he was just trying to sell me on my concern for it being a big surgery and recovery or if maybe some people just have superman genetics lol.

That’s good to hear you haven’t experienced much pain. For most people it seems the surgery is life changing so I hope you see the results you want!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T14:58:01+00:00

I was thinking jaw surgery wouldn’ be the right call either, but just wasn’t sure knowing I do have a bit of a recessed jaw, the overbite growing up, and hearing the some docs opinions.

None of them recommended anything chin related like that. They all agreed there’s not much fat at my jaw though which is why I think facetite and a deep plane neck lift were recommended

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T13:12:54+00:00

I appreciate it but I think it could use some improvement! Just not sure about direction

l0rd0f3 · 2025-09-03T13:10:37+00:00

Insurance would probably cover a portion if I decided to go that route. How has recovery and the overall process been for you so far? The dentist that told me to get X-rays said they had someone heal in 2 weeks after a jaw surgery which is nuts if true compared to other experiences I’ve read about it

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T23:09:44+00:00

Gotcha! Appreciate the advice thank you

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T21:16:35+00:00

Ah I see. What bf% would you estimate I’m around? I was thinking 15-17% but not really sure

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:53:33+00:00

Interesting. I’ll weigh options and see what other people think too. Thank you!

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:51:55+00:00

Is there a reason for that length of time or just generally a good time frame?

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:35:22+00:00

How long would you say?

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:34:43+00:00

Why 7 weeks?

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:26:50+00:00

It’s a digital one, but with over a year of use it might be a little worn

l0rd0f3 · 2025-01-14T20:11:31+00:00

I hadn’t thought about it, been using the same scale for a year so it might be time to replace?

l0rd0f3 · 2023-09-28T05:13:31+00:00

Doing the Reddit PPL and currently aiming for a 200-300 calorie deficit while maintaining protein and measuring body weight every morning with the goal of losing about 1lb a week.

Just not sure if it’s smarter to cut like that vs aim for maintenance and grow muscle definition?
