Based on those pictures, you don't need any of that
be very careful & mindful of where body dysmorphia might take you.I have congenital hemifacial microsomia (my right side is less developed, than the left): right orbit 3.5mm lower, canted maxilla, right ramus shorter, jaw deviated to the right side and a very mild overbite. (You can invert my front pics, to get a better idea).Based on those pictures, you don't need any of that
It doesn't look like you need a trimax either, but there might be a functional aspect that is not emphasized in your pictures. Also, you seem to be jutting/clenching/tilting your head up, which makes any assessment quite useless.
Restoring your temporal peaks would probably do more for your facial harmony and looks than any of the aforementioned procedures
youre delulu nigga all that risk for a ROI no more than a subway sandwich
I get the OBO concerns & agree 100%, just a personal choice I've made. Implants are a 50/50, but I plan to get very conservative custom ones
Most of what you describe doesn't catch the attention and therefore doesn't take away from your looks in a truly meaningful way. I understand that it can bother you though.
so I had this one ready to use) :
Yeah, oral minoxidil is something I 100% plan to add, when I find a good local source. Shipping is a bit dangerous due to customs in my country.Most of what you describe doesn't catch the attention and therefore doesn't take away from your looks in a truly meaningful way. I understand that it can bother you though.
After straightening the pic below, I see now the orbital asymmetry you mentioned. If fixing it was as simple as strabismus repair (for example), I would tell you to go for it ; on the other hand, the risk to reward for an OBO doesn't seem good to me. But you're obviously the one judging this aspect at the end of the day. And if you do it with full awareness of the risks and consequences, then there's not much to argue about, and we can only wish you the best outcome possible.
As for the alarplasty : your current nose proportions are just slightly unideal, and it may not even be the case if pictures had been taken further away from your face (pictures taken too close to the face tend to accentuate nose width). Moreover, I think it looks dimorphic/masculine as is. It is not a bad-looking nose.

(the nose expands a bit past the medial canthi, and the mouth to nose width ratio is very slightly outside the ideal range — 1.4-1.6)
Your radix appears mildly recessed. Taken on its own, I don't think it would warrant a surgery, as the aesthetic benefit would be rather minimal ; but if you undergo a rhinoplasty to alter other parts of the nose, then adding a radix graft to the list cannot hurt.

This is a case where grafting the radix would generate a clearer aesthetic benefit (yes, I do morph random people & models in my spare time

And, yeah, my comment about "temporal peaks" alluded to them being receded and thinning. Temporal peaks are often overlooked in favor of the hairline, but they do play an important role in framing the upper face ; strong & forward-projected temporal peaks will make any hair style/length look better. It's good that you've hopped on finasteride ; I would suggest to add minoxidil and microneedling to your routine, even so just to treat temporal peaks.

Nice progress with the marpe. How much did you turn/expand? Any facemask usage?
Did ur expander break
No, I just turned it too the max, but it's stable / hard. Ortho checked it and said, won't cause any issues
I have DM'ed Dr. Burak back and forth, regarding the possibility of said procedure/surgeries. Considering he ka Turkish and I'm Azerbaijani, I think it'll be easier to communicate / coordinate the planning etc.Nice progress with the marpe. How much did you turn/expand? Any facemask usage?
I assume you're going with Giant for the OBO? How did you convince him to give it to you
