Life ruined just like that. Brutal
Not according to him.Life ruined just like that. Brutal
he looks better if he's trying to attract balloon tits, balloon lipped, plastic whoreshe mucj looks better, but yeah still a shit ass result
This is literally the top comment:But it’s great that Reddit is delusionmaxxing him. He sees a chad in the mirror and that’s what really matters in the end.

Or this onehe looks better if he's trying to attract balloon tits, balloon lipped, plastic whores
this is by far his best pic:
he also fucked his nose
Yeah, he has a long chin and a somewhat shallow ramus. A lot of bimax advancements result in a banana mandible.Cover the lower third with your thumb and it looks fine
The angle of the lower third doesn't work with the angle of the maxilla
It looks off, not to mention the swelling of the lower third making it seem that his bigonial is crazy
If he fixes his lower third, then he's set
Is there any way to make a banana mandible straight after bimax?Yeah, he has a long chin and a somewhat shallow ramus. A lot of bimax advancements result in a banana mandible.
Chin wing or implants. I also asked Ramieri about cutting the ramus to lengthen it during bimax and he said it's a possibility but I've never seen a case of a popular surgeon doing it on a typical patient.Is there any way to make a banana mandible straight after bimax?
Same with me manChin wing or implants. I also asked Ramieri about cutting the ramus to lengthen it during bimax and he said it's a possibility but I've never seen a case of a popular surgeon doing it on a typical patient.
Personally, I would need it done on one side because one ramus is shorter, which would theoretically address some of the asymmetry in my bite.
Not really. I'm just moderately recessed and have ramus length discrepancy. One of my gonial angles is acceptable and the other is too wide with the ramus being short. It isn't very noticeable from the front because my bite seems to align but my lower teeth are actually shifted in position by roughly one tooth size as a result.Do you have that mild condylar hyperplasia
I had braces when I was 10 but only on the top teeth and they have since relapsed. I had my wisdom teeth removed at 17.Did you do orthodontics growing up?
Extractions? Braces?

If the jaws are secured and he doesn't relapse then the movements will likely solve his sleep apnea. Why would you doubt that?This is a cautionary tale for people who just want big advancements. The maxilla constitutes the entire midface. If you only move the upper jaw, you leave the rest of the maxilla behind. This was not about sleep apnea, whatever he says. This was clearly about aesthetics. It was a bad result though. No serious surgeon was advocate an advancement like this. I'm frankly surprised he got the NHS to even agree to this.
No i agree that advancement will address sleep apnea but the advancements of well over 1cm (in this man's case) are clearly for aesthetic reasons - not functional. Large advancements (>1cm) are more liable to relapse although I'm sure he'll be better off than when he started.If the jaws are secured and he doesn't relapse then the movements will likely solve his sleep apnea.

He said that he had a poor result after his first procedure due to under-advancement. I suspect that he wanted to make sure that was avoided the second time. He seemed pretty aware that the large advancement would look chimpish, so your argument about aesthetics is not that strong, frankly.No i agree that advancement will address sleep apnea but the advancements of well over 1cm are clearly for aesthetic reasons - not functional.

Ok. Missed that. His first op doesn't look like an under-advancement to me. Even if it was, near 1cm advancements were excessive. Tbh, I just don't believe that second advancement was functional. I'd bet money on it. He probably thinks the chimp look is attractive. Many people go to Alfaro for this reason.He said that he had a poor result after his first procedure due to under-advancement.

I don’t blame him. Most people don’t get that a misalignment of the teeth almost always means that the rest of the face didn’t grow properly. They think fixing the teeth and advancing the jaws as far as possible fixes the problem.He thinks he is ascended bro
As opposed to what—slightly advancing the jaws?They think fixing the teeth and advancing the jaws as far as possible fixes the problem.
Yes. Advancing the lower maxilla too much creates a skeletal discrepancy with the rest of the maxilla. That’s why it’s crudely called “chimpmaxxing” here. The first operation looks much more natural than the revision to me. At this point, he’s do well to get custom implants to provide more upper maxillary projection.As opposed to what—slightly advancing the jaws?
Is anyone claiming that having some random surgeon arbitrarily move bones around will save everyone?proof that surgery wont save everyone
