I'm at 5 week post op from djs and starting to look at what i want done next. I think my eye area's good enough so i was mainly looking at the mid face and a little bit of the lower third. just gunna say what i was thinking about have done and see what you all think. i threw some befores relaxed and smiling (i have teeth now
didnt before the downgraft) in the attachments for reference. not sure why the photos look so dingy
midface
nose job
given. going to reduce the size and slightly upturn it.
lip lift
not sure if it's necessary. my teeth show when i smile but not when I talk. I'd like them to show when I talk. but if I pull the lip up it might show gum when i smile. what do you guys think? is it possible?
paranasals
as you can see now that some swellings gone down my nasolabials are getting more prominent again. I don't want fat grafting, i wanted to fake some bone support instead. Surgeon thinks a facelift oughtta do it, but id rather augment the structure, facelift seems like a subscription based service where ive gotta do it again and again over the years to keep fixing it.
I've seen a few different shapes, ones with a hood on each side of the nose, ones with one big hoof under the nose, and ones that trace all the way up the side if the nose and also augment the infras. This is more of a full midface augmentation. Do these look stupid in practice or no?
Should I get paranasals, and what shape would work best?
cheekbones
could i increase them a good bit more or am i approaching the gay zone?
lower third
buccal fat removal
I want the hollow cheeks and ik this helps but everyone hates on it. what do you guys think? i like the skeleton, gaunt look. so i think id like it
chin
chin is deviated a few mm sideways, and upturned in the side profile. would it be easier to just have the entire thing shaved off and augmented instead of doing genio? I'd get more freedom in my design and I think it's be a faster recovery.
jaw
if i do a chin implant, should I go ahead and design the implant to augment the entire mandible? fix the angle a bit and add some flare at the ends?
neck lift
got that little double chin no matter how lean i get
So yeah lmk what you guys think and if you have any other suggestions

i always thought they were a decent feature. really not a fan of changing them. when i look at myself i think that's the most important part of identifying myself. i can change all the stuff around my face but changing the eyes would make it seem like it's not me anymore. seems like i lose myself if i do that

I get all my pharma from india though so switching tret out would take 2 weeks, looking in to it. Not buying any more oral collagen because it did always feel like a scam
