I turned 18 yesterday. Perfect timing. Now I need to get a 3D CBCT (Cone Beam, large FOV, full DICOM files) because they require it at least 15 days before the appointment. I still have to book it, but I’ll do it ASAP so they can properly analyze everything.
I trust Ramieri a lot. He’s one of the few surgeons here who actually thinks in terms of structure. But I also know he’s very conservative. For minor recessions he doesn’t push bimax. Ideally, I’d want a trimax + rhino because my main goal is to truly fix the side profile. That said, I’m open to whatever he recommends as long as it genuinely harmonizes the profile and hopefully improves the front a bit too.
My chin is definitely recessed. Realistically he might suggest genio + rhinoplasty. If that’s the direction, I’d at least want to consider adding zygo implants to improve midface projection, not just the lower third.
I’m attaching the X-ray I took a few weeks ago. Let me know what you guys think structurally and what approach you’d consider in my case.
Will update after the CBCT.
