Question

I had bimaxillary osteotomy 8 years ago to fix my lower and upper jaws. However, I'm still not happy. I think my chin is not harmonious when smiling.

I would like to know if you can measure my face when smiling to see what part of the face is out before going forward.

Answer

I think the best way forward would be to organise a meeting in one of the combined facial sculpting clinics that I run together with a maxillofacial colleague.

This would allow us to discuss with you based on 3-D imaging installation and evaluate the characteristics of the changes that you seek and translate them into possible surgical options.

If you would like to organise an appointment, kindly contact our practice on (020) 7486 7757 and my team will be delighted to organise the necessary.
