This was two separate surgeries by the same surgeon:
1. Bimax for sleep apnea with a subspinal cut for potential future rhinoplasty.
2. Rhinoplasty to improve breathing and bring drooping nose forward.
Rhinoplasty was just last week so I’m still super swollen. Upper lip will go back a bit and eye area redness/swelling will go away. I can post again when swelling is down, and for now I’m obscuring the eye because it looks temporarily horrible and people will just fixate on that.
After the first surgery (bimax), some people on here were like “you were botched” but that’s because the subspinal cut under the nose kept the midface area back.
My opinion: the surgeon did a great job and I ascended from low-tier (some would say incel-tier lol) to mid-tier, based on this forum’s strict standards. (Regular people might even consider me high-tier by now.)
I generally dislike the toxicity on this forum, but I’m posting because some people were genuinely helpful, and maybe my case can be helpful for others in the future!
Thoughts?
