After some research and consultations, I'm 100% convinced I'll get bimax, and that it will be either from Ramieri or Alfaro.
My perceived pros and cons:
Alfaro:
Any thoughts? If I had to choose now, I think I'd go with Alfaro because of jaw widening and plates.
My perceived pros and cons:
Alfaro:
- More advancement
- Potential for "supportive rhinoplasty"
- Excellent execution skills
- Risk of over-advancement
- Found many complaints about botching (unclear if they are all legit, but at least some of them seem to be)
- Mediocre planning.
- Able to do jaw widening
- Uses guides, safer
- Risks of under-advancement
- AFAIK doesn't do supportive rhinoplasty
- Seems to be doing fewer bimax cases per year than Alfaro.
