Im 19 and got invisalign with class 3 elastics for underbite and crossbite, am i cooked?

[freshfadejerry]

I am almost done invisalign and had it for around 2 years now. Ortho gave me class 3 elastics for around a 8 months now to treat my underbite and crossbite. I am new here. I did some reading and there is mix thoughts on class 3 elastics on whether its good or bad for you. I have side profile photos from before and after but I am not sure if they are reliable because its not always taken from the same angle.

Was class 3 elastics the right move?

yes, you're not cooked. fix your underbite & crossbite first with invisalign & then decide if you still hate how you look and then plan surgery

Well, did your underbite and crossbite get fixed? If so, that’s what matters because I see zero difference in these pictures from the outside. Your face didn’t get cooked or anything

Ye teeth are straight and both bites are fixed, my midline is not centered so I asked for another round of invisalign to possibly fix face asymmetry

Still undergoing ortho, I dont think much has changed since. I do not regret getting invisalign since it prob helped my harmony alot better and prob never reccessed much since I never extracted. My next visit I will try to fix my midline for asymmetry, and thatll be it for me for ortho.
