Thanks guys, I certainly do hope a genioplasty will be enough to get the chin into the right position now.

I think it is buccal fat removal, it is kind of complimentary to the jaw angle augmentation.

Hi peeps, Here are my before and after pics as promised. I am 6 weeks post-op from surgery performed by Maurice Mommaerts in Belgium. I wanted to wait until most of the swelling had gone down before I posted my pics so sorry for the delay. Click on the link: http://s1099.photobucket.com/albums/g387/...

Hi guys I'm now 6 weeks post-op so wanted to update you. I can now see the difference and there is improvement, however, my chin is still recessed so I will need a genioplasty also. This is not a surprise as I always knew I would need genio as well and Dr M told me to wait and see results of Bimax b...

Hi Teeth of Cthulhu, yes I do remember you from MissJ's forum. Thanks so much, how are you? I looked for my original thread on MissJ but it no longer seems to be there, maybe it was deleted, but why?

Thanks Suzanna that's really helped me feel better. Did you have any permanent change in sensation after surgery? I really don't want my nose to upturn any more than it is already but since I plan on having rhinoplasty in the future anyway it might not have to be such a worry. I'll try and post some...

I’m due to have jaw surgery performed by Prof. Maurice Mommaerts in Belgium in under 2 weeks time. I’m booked for bimaxillary surgery (double jaw advancement) but I’m getting a bit cold feet now and wondering if I should change the plans to just have mandibular advancement surgery instead. Prof. Mom...

Thank you sooo much for that information Terry - really appreciated, i'll check him out. Good luck with your decision mate, let us know what you finally decide. It's good to hear from a fellow UKer looking into the same thing as me.

Hi I live in the UK but want to travel overseas (within Europe) for Orthognathic surgery, to take advantage of the cheaper cost. Can anybody tell me the names of good and renowned oral surgeons in Europe? Also can anybody give me names of good surgeons in the UK as I plan to consult with a few on ho...
