Cure for short face plz help

[patricknotstar]

My face is very short vertically especially my lower third, but I have no malocclusion. Could surgery help elongate my face , for example something like this

Of course. A lengthening genio, bimax with clockwise maxillary rotation accomplished via moving the ans downward, some combo of the two. Need to have a ceph analysis done to know which will bring your particular skeletal anatomy closer to ideals.

Do you have an appropriate amount of tooth show when you smile? (As opposed to the example you posted preop where his upper lip covered most of his top teeth because of a vertically short maxilla)

His post-op tooth show is close to ideal, I'm guessing they performed a clockwise maxillary rotation

I have no malocclusion and normal tooth show, yet my jaw is still recessed and I have a very short face , kinda like the guy in the before pic

Arnett is retired, Gunson definitely will, and if you consult him either in person or digitally, you'll get a surgical plan that will let you know what ballpark movements you need.

Thanks for all the help Bro, I’m so recessed I can never shave my beard. Even my mom has told me not to shave XD

No problem. Gunson's surgical prices are kind of outrageous, but it's definitely worth it to consult with him. I had a digital consult with him, well worth the money

Do you know what causes dorsal hump? Is that too much CW rotation or something else?

Do you feel bumps or like downward slopes on the roof of your mouth when you
feel around your palette with your tongue?
