After a long time having orthodontic treatment, I'm finally having bimax, genio and jaw implants on April 14th 
. So I have already done my CT Scan and the other exams my doctor needs to design my implants and to show me a preview of my bimax.
I have a very weak jaw. I was class II when I was a kid, but bc of orthodontic treatment I had on my adolescence, they fixed my occlusion. But the aesthetic result is not good. My jaws still look recessed, as you can see in these pictures:
Previously, I was also planning to get cheek implants in the same surgery. I showed my doctor examples of cheek implants I think looked good, I told that I was looking for the high cheekbones look. I realized the best way to explain what I want to achieve to my surgeon is by showing him pictures of other guys who had good results after these procedures, so I showed him the pictures of @Saiyan. He said it was possible for him to create the type of cheeks that I want and that he also liked this aesthetic.
Later on, after he analyzed my face, he concluded that I had no need for cheek implants bc my cheekbones are already wide enough (wider than my bigonial width), the reason they are not defined is because of the position of my jaws and the excess of buccal fat. He suggested I should go for custom jaw implants placed on my ramus instead and possibly a buccal fat removal, I agreed.
Months ago, when I asked when I could see a preview of what my face will look like after these procedures, he said that he used to show patients two days before the surgery. I think that's such a limited time to suggest any type of modification so we agreed that he should try to show me the preview 15 days before. But today, 3 days prior my surgery, he said he only wants to show me the preview when my custom implants have arrived, and this would only happen on Wednesday (April 13) at 5pm. My surgery is going to be on April 14th at 7am. I'm really not happy with this, but right now I have no other option but to accept that I will only be able to know what will be done to my face hours before the surgery. The reason I'm not freaking out is bc I know he is very experienced and one of the best in my country (Brazil).

How to explain what I want to achieve to my bimax surgeon?
So, I want to get bimax soon and I was planning to show pictures of chads whose bones structures I like to the surgeon. I made a PDF file telling exactly what I don't like about my face and what I want to achieve with this surgery with the chads pics But I'm afraid that showing this pics to him...

It was my first appointment with him I gave him a PDF explaining exactly what I don't like about my face and what I want to achieve with the surgery. So, basically I was diagnosed with "Selective eating disorder", so I didn't eat any solid food until my late teens. I knew that it influenced my...
