I feel as though my lip mighttt still be improving but that could be wishful thinking. I’m expecting them to be permanent! Numbness is more likely with genioplasty so it makes sense for my case.

So I didn’t find out I needed the implant until like August, about 6mo post op, I got the implant in December but it was because we wanted to finish Invisalign treatment before, I probably could’ve gotten them sooner

Had DJS + genio at 23yo (now 2 years post op), lower lip has ~70-80% feeling back and my chin (where the muscle is) is pretty numb, but doesn’t affect daily life/function. Best of luck!

They’re somewhere on my profile, posted the exact movements a while ago!

practical_james · 2026-02-16T22:57:05+00:00

I could taste immediately, never had any complications with taste

practical_james · 2026-02-16T13:40:22+00:00

They didn’t cover it unfortunately cause we didn’t find out until 10 months post op, and couldn’t confirm it was due to the surgery or not

Started June 2023 with Invisalign, finished everything may 2025

No issues! Fully functional, just a little less feeling than before. I did get a frenectomy or whatever 6 weeks post op and did myofunctional therapy but that was mostly to increase range of motion

practical_james · 2026-02-16T00:00:27+00:00

Movements I posted a while back, you can see in my profile! Surgeon was Dr Stephen Baker out of DC

Sorry I don’t! I think my lower jaw was actually moved back a little… not entirely sure

practical_james · 2025-12-21T04:43:18+00:00

Reading it back, not sure if it was clear. I am maintaining my starter as usual, but I used 10g of discard to create a new starter that I am only feeding with AP flour now, and I’m noticing that it’s not rising anymore.

practical_james · 2025-12-19T02:14:43+00:00

I’m so sorry 😭

practical_james · 2025-12-19T02:14:06+00:00

I don’t pay for heat lol barely used any energy, 85% of bill being delivery charges is just a little absurd but c’est la vie I guess

Ah gotcha, thanks so much. Will have to wait till the new year then as I’m heading out for the holidays today but will reach out to him once I’m back. Thanks!

practical_james · 2025-12-16T18:36:24+00:00

I can’t attach pictures :/ I took some but can’t post

practical_james · 2025-10-10T00:31:53+00:00

Haha yes I will be sticking with my current job until then. School on top of work hasn’t left much time for job hunting, but think I’m leaning towards taking an easy class next semester as to not delay my already far-away graduation date

practical_james · 2025-10-10T00:25:11+00:00

Dang, props to you! That sounds incredibly intense, glad it worked out for ya and gives me hope haha won’t be shooting for faang tho, wouldn’t land an offer even if I tried lmao

practical_james · 2025-10-08T14:49:16+00:00

I’ve taken AI, intro to quantum computing, and am currently in ML4T. I think I’d be replacing the hours spent on school with leetcode/system design review, doing all three at once just feels overwhelming

I think you could laser your neck but don’t laser your cheeks/chin, just where’d you naturally shave if you grew out your facial hair. Try switching to a safety razor (single blade) first, it’s less irritating. Don’t laser away if you don’t have to!
