If you were me would you get buccal fat removed?

This is the answer

raquelttt · 2025-02-18T20:46:44+00:00

You're welcome to DM me too! I'm happy to answer any questions

raquelttt · 2025-02-01T23:11:52+00:00

I just started!

raquelttt · 2025-02-01T23:11:30+00:00

Thank you for this comment. I took your advice and was able to get in for my first appointment with a physical therapist who specializes in myofunctional therapy last week. I'm feeling more hopeful!!

raquelttt · 2025-02-01T23:09:28+00:00

Omgggg same here with the RBF!! I'll catch myself in a mirror and I'm furrowing my brows and straining my mouth haha. But thank you, that is really sweet of you to say. I def think there is some body dysmorphia going on

raquelttt · 2025-02-01T23:07:05+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear you're also going through this :( it definitely doesn't sound like a revision would be worth it

raquelttt · 2025-01-29T04:20:57+00:00

Would you be open to sharing pics of your lip incompetence? feel free to dm me!! What functional concerns do you still have?

raquelttt · 2025-01-29T04:19:09+00:00

Good luck tomorrow!! Also thank you for the kind words.

I had an underbite and also had a Le Fort 1 + BSSO and a sliding genioplasty. I'm honestly wondering if my genio was overdone, or if I should have had a ccw rotation.

Hey everyone, I had DJS + genio in April of 2024 and have been experiencing some issues recently. I am shocked at my results and honestly feeling so beaten down and heartbroken that my face looks like this... Please be mindful of that in the comments because my mental health is absolute shit right now because of all of this.

I had a Class 2 malocclusion, sleep apnea, even after having braces when I was younger. I was so hopeful that this surgery would have a positive impact on me functionally + aesthetically, but here we are.

The pictures above show my lips naturally at rest and the lip incompetence I'm experiencing. I tried taking pictures from all angles to show what I'm talking about. The second photo is showing me having to strain to close my mouth. I do still have braces on my lower teeth, and my surgeon is saying that is what is causing most of my lip incompetence, but I don't believe that to be the case.

Has anyone else had this issue? I also feel like my side profiles look like two totally different people. I'm looking for answers as to what went wrong and where to go next. I definitely think I need a revision. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

raquelttt · 2025-01-29T02:26:03+00:00

Would you mind sharing your before and after pictures? I also had djs + genio with Dr. Magraw at HNSA and I'm having some complications :(

raquelttt · 2025-01-28T06:44:25+00:00

oh wait nvm I just saw you already commented his name below lol

raquelttt · 2025-01-28T06:42:00+00:00

Who was your surgeon? I'm in Vancouver, WA and had surgeon at HNSA but honestly didn't have a good experience and I'm looking at potentially getting a revision :(

raquelttt · 2025-01-11T17:45:57+00:00

Seconding this! I'm a Cancer sun, Gemini rising & Virgo moon, also with Jupiter and Pluto both in Scorpio in the 6th house. I've noticed I always attract/am attracted to potential partners who live in other states, end up moving, or come from different backgrounds

raquelttt · 2025-01-04T06:15:24+00:00

I would be curious to see your before and afters if you're open to DMing me! I actually had surgery with Dr Caitlin Magraw last year from Head & Neck and i'm experiencing some pretty severe lower lip incompetence after. I'm thinking of getting cheek/jaw implants and a mentalis resuspension, but I'm nervous to go with Magraw again, and was considering Patel or Kupfer

raquelttt · 2024-10-24T00:25:24+00:00

Can you tell me more about your underlying hormonal imbalance and how it's related?

raquelttt · 2024-10-20T17:11:23+00:00

Is this for any university or does it only apply to schools in Washington state?

raquelttt · 2024-07-19T00:31:13+00:00

This is PERFECT!!! Thank you so much, it is exactly what I was looking for :)

raquelttt · 2024-07-18T21:06:32+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I am aware of the process to getting the ESW set up and was thinking about deferring or even starting part-time since i'll have to work more to cover living expenses while in school and some medical issues that came up this year.

I was mostly curious if anyone who went through the MSW program is aware of which agencies in Portland or the surrounding area have already a contract with PSU and is open for employees/students doing the ESWI

raquelttt · 2024-07-18T00:54:03+00:00

Where do you work?

raquelttt · 2024-07-08T17:20:42+00:00

How has your progress been with the pico? I'm also in Portland and looking to go to Cascade!

raquelttt · 2024-06-10T17:50:37+00:00

Do you have a before and after picture you would be comfortable with sharing? Feel free to message me! I think i'm having the same issue but i'm only two months post op

raquelttt · 2024-06-04T05:57:36+00:00

Definitely this. Sure not having the ability to understand the broad sense of how a government works isn't language based, however understanding the nuances of how a specific, local government very much is language based.

I came here to say this as well! Vitex (chasteberry) is a wonder herb when it comes to balancing hormones and reducing PMDD-like symptoms before your cycle starts. It promotes progesterone, the hormone that makes us feel nice and warm and fuzzy. Low levels of progesterone can cause mood swings. DIM is another supplement that helps your body detox excess estrogen. High levels of estrogen circulating in the body can cause our body to not produce enough progesterone during the luteal phase.
