LeFort 2/3 Surgeons

[Snicket]

Looking for European or US-based surgeons who provide high level osteotomies to non syndromic patients.
I know there are providers in developed countries - NOT Turkey or the developing world.

This would be to address mid-facial hypoplasia and class III malocclusion (7mm+). As most people here know, LeFort 1 is sadly inadequate in the vast majority of class III cases as it fails to address the full extent of the problem .

I have posted a similar topic but just need any lead I can get right now, so posting this just in case anyone new/knowledgable user sees this thread/missed the last one.

Once again, any help would be appreciated.

Are there even any surgeons who perform lf2 on non syndromic patients besides giant?

What is it that you have that can't be fixed with implants in the upper face ?

Giant provides implants in patnership with Turkish surgeons who perform LF2/3. I respect what he does but I'm not going to trust Turkey with such an invasive operation. The surgeons may well be good but I'm not prepared to take the risk, considering the magnitude of the operation.

My issue with implants is long term aging with them and risks of bone erosion. I just want to move the bone and get closure on the whole thing without having to worry about it down the line. It also doesn't replicate moving the nasal cavity.

No true, I get what you mean but I don't know if the risk is worth it

The complication rate is very low if done by an experienced surgeon. The issue is finding surgeons who are 1. Capable 2. Experienced and 3. Willing.

Most surgeons don't even satisfy 1 and many that are experienced just won't do it unless you have at least 1cm of recession. That leaves a lot of people (5mm-1cm) who clearly need more than LF-1 without proper treatment.

Ask Pagnoni or Steinbacher

I didn't realise Pagnoni offered anything high level. Thanks for the help.

Yes it's very difficult. A lot of people in the 5mm-10mm category are left out in the cold because they're not severe enough. It's like telling a 5ft 2 guy not to do anything about it because he's doesn't have dwarfism.

Heard from someone recently he may now be offering cosmetic LeFort 2 (for a very high price) so worth a shot

Who do you trust? You think US or Western European Surgeons are any good? We see plenty of shitty operations by Taban, Eppley, Yaremchuk, Pagnoni, Coencig etc...With that being said, If you go to a Turkish clinic for 1000 USD of course you will certainly get botched. However, if you find high quality doctors such as ones that Giants currently working with, you will almost always get a great result. Actually, LF2-3 are not even properly performed in US or Western Europe whereas Turkish surgeons like Celal or Burak are trained on these operations countless time by Giants. So they will have a lot more experience than "board certified" clowns

That was from 1.5 years ago, before any of you even knew his name. His assistant basically implying that they weren't even going to do planning.

Well when I talked to them, they told that they are doing planning. Here is a draft they sent me;

Yes I do. Medical standards in the US and Western Europe are far higher than Turkey. This isn't a debatable point. According to most healthcare rankings, Turkey is on a par with Belarus.

I know that. I don't put blind faith in anyone. That doesn't change the fact that medical standards and safeguards are far higher than Turkey.

These surgeries are performed in Europe on non syndromic people. They're just much harder to find. I don't think we should scoff at 'board certified'. It is some measure of quality and aptitude. High level osteotemies are massive, highly specialised operations so I won't just go anywhere for it. In fact, my standards will be much higher than for a conventional bimax.

In that case you have to acknowledge that surgeries you will get from these "high standard" doctors will be very mediocre because they are not performed for aesthetic purposes for ltn/mtns. You have to be deformed to get it. Unfortunately, doctors in west are too chicken for osteotomies. They prefer to go with fillers that end up shit. Can you imagine getting a medical degree and studying so much and you can't even predict how human body will react because it is too complicated for their two digit IQ. These are the people making standards "very high" and barring innovative surgeries to take place. That is why Turkey is great and I highly suggest you go somewhere that will push the boundaries and put aesthetic forward.
