Sliding drawer 10-12mm genioplasty on Dec 1

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Guess what I'm getting for Christmas this year..... a chin.... a real

chin, made out of bone and all the way forward where it's

supposed to be. I'm having a genioplasty procedure that my

doctor calls a " sliding drawer " , also sometimes called a " box "

genioplasty that will allow for the 10-12mm that I need to have a

normal profile. This will represent my second genioplasty as I

had a standard sliding genioplasty along with lower jaw

advancement ten years ago. That surgery gave me a total

advancement of about 10mm, but that really only halfway

corrected the profile problem. I had an implant put in this fall but

it failed to heal properly so was removed already. I've consulted

several surgeons on doing a secondary genioplasty and

although they all agree that it can be done, this option looks the

best for really delivering the look I want and need. Although I'm

an engineer by profession, I am also getting into modelling, so

having a good profile is literally money in the bank in that

business. My surgeon has a very impressive portfolio of jaw and

chin advancement cases that are some of the best

transformations I have ever seen, so I'm certainly hoping that his

artistic and surgical capabilities will benefit me as well. My

" before " pictures are already posted in a file called " bad post op

profile " . That is what my profile is right now which represents

what I had after jaw advancement and the first genioplasty.

Obviously, I'll be looking forward to posting the new genio post

ops.

, i am thinking of an implant. what exactly went wrong with

yours that it had to be removed, when you said it did not heal

well. Take a look at my pictures under " -off center chin " in

the photo section and you can see the new chin i got and the gummy

smile taken away, but also the assymetry. an implant would be done

on one side to even it out. please let me know what went wrong with

your implant. thanks, katie

Hello .

Glad to hear that you were able to find the best procedure for

yourself!

I wanted to ask a couple of questions. I have sleep apnea and I was

recommended to get a lower jaw advancment and genioplasty to address

this issue. I have since discovered less invasive procedures that I

am considering. The problem is that these less invasive procedures

do not improve my overbite/underdeveloped chin. So, in short, I

will likely resolve my sleep apnea with these less invasive

procedures but not improve my overbite and recessed chin.

In your opinion: do you think the lower jaw advancment OR the

genioplasty had the greatest affect on the improvement of your lower

profile?

I could get the less invasive procedures for the sleep apnea and get

the genioplasty alone to address the recessed chin. I am just

concerned that the genioplasty (12 mm) without the lower jaw

advancment would produce BAD results?

Please also provide the name of the surgeons you are using for

this " sliding drawer " procedure.

I would appreciate the feedback.

For those considering genio (I am also), I am wondering if 12 mm

would be too unnatural and dangerous? My doctor said I need about 5

mm forward, and 3 mm down (I have three dimensional deficiency, short

vertically and horizontally).

But one thing he told me is that with greater advancments there is

two issues. First the numbness might be more pronounced since the

nerve could be stretched a lot. The other is the " step-type "

irregularity that arises when they gut a piece of the bone and move

forward (like an open drawer). I personally dont want to have this

step type thing so I insisted to keep the osteotomy less than 5 mm.

So keep consideration of the risks as well before extensive movements.

Regards.

I FEEL like i have a step or a shelf, though i am not sure the

pictures would be severe enough to say that. i am going to go back

in under photos () and take a look at myself now! i may FEEL

this way because i basically felt like i had NO CHIN before. i also

feel like the face/jaw/chin examiner when i look at other people and

i see the same look that i have now on MANY other people, so i am

thinking i look pretty OK. i do feel as though i notice a

horizontal line in my chin area, which creates a dip or recess

which would be the step or shelf i am talking about. back to look!
