Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hi there and welcome to the boards. If you do a google search on 'Orthognathic Surgery before and after photos' you will get lots of websites with these results. There are also before on after photos posted on this board. I am also having upper, lower, and a genioplasty but not for another 9-12 months. I wish it were happening sooner! Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 hey marissa, i too am having upper, and lower jaw surgery with genioplasty. i am 19, and have definately wanted this for years. i do not know if my surgery is going to be in january yet, if i am not ready for january i will have to wait until june, so it doesnt interfer with school. i joined this group about a week ago because i also started to feel nervous, but reading through the archives is helping me out. you should definately read through the archieves, and ask your surgeon about anything that makes you feel nervous. where are you having your surgery? who is your surgeon?
